17 years ago, Steve Jobs stood on stage with a manila envelope in his hand and pulled out a laptop. At that time, mini-laptops called netbook were very popular, and the first Macbook Air had far superior features in every way. I had a Lenovo IdeaPad S10e.

Sometimes I see this photo when Apple announces a new product and there are some really funny jokes about it on social media. Frankly, I don’t understand the criticism that “Apple is exhausted, it can’t produce anything new” for technological products that have reached a certain maturity. How do you compare them?
