Apple’s been ignoring professional users for a while now. Folks in sound and video production were the ones who kept them alive in the 90s. But they turned Final Cut Pro into iMovie+ and their professional machines are impossible to upgrade or repair.
Remember the outrigger cases? Or the G3/G4? Beautiful design, great airflow, and one latch and the whole thing opened up.
Remembering the G3 and G4s had daughterboards? So you can not only change out the memory, but also change out the CPU/GPU. It was a great time to be an Apple fan back then.

Yeah! IIRC there were even daughterboards with full Intel systems on them so you could run Windows/DOS applications
Oh ya!!! You could swap the IBM board or the Cirrix board. Oh man. Blast from the past.
