News letter that’s says; Behind closed doors, the new leadership at Apple is facing a terrifying reality: The MacBook is becoming a dinosaur. In the age of Al agents and 10x productivity, a single 13-inch screen is a cage. But while Apple is tied to its legacy hardware, a hidden disruptor has launched a "pocket-sized" 4K workstation that makes physical monitors (and laptops) obsolete. They've achieved what Apple couldn't: 5 virtual screens in a frame lighter than an iPhone. The "Post-Mac" era has begun, but it's not being led by Apple. Reveal the hardware that's making the MacBook obsolete
