Hahaha, no no.
Just the most interesting thing that happened today :)
In case of the Face ID, for example, I was kinda sarcastic regarding security -
That Mac Mini sounds cool. Any MacBook Pro or non-Pro iPad news?
(Not that I'm planning on blowing that kind of money again too soon...) -

Unfortunately that's all that Apple announced today.
Let's see what happens in the future...
I'd love to see another iPad Mini! -
MacBook Air! Now even harder to keep from bending, denying, or otherwise mutilating! (But you can lose it more easily, because it's now harder to keep out of small slot-like spaces that you can't get things out of!)

Was waiting to see the satirical comments or sarcasm while reading the blatantly underwhelming specs and the lack of innovation. I am disappoint.

@arcadesdude no one expects innovation from Apple so there's no room for sarcasm. Apple's only key area is marketing.
