Mac computer and iPhone maker Apple on Tuesday will announce plans to make parts, tools and documentation needed to repair its products available to independent repair shops and consumers nationwide, at fair and reasonable prices, the White House said.
Something like that yeah. But from what I came to understand about that is they basically only offered the parts and stuff directly to the registered owner.
This time they’re saying they’ll offer parts and tools and manuals to independent repair shops. Is it too good to be true, is there a catch? I wouldn’t doubt it.
They’ll still probably pull the same old sort of jank where just because one single component failed on the motherboard, they won’t offer that individual component and you’ll still have to get an entire motherboard…
Didn’t they already promise this like a year ago?
