Apple shipped the Mac Mini as a straightforward desktop. Then people worked out they could run agentic AI workflows on it locally, and Bob O’Donnell, President of TECHnalysis Research, says Apple did not plan for that at all. It is pushing into the category now.
He also lays out what John Ternus inherits when he replaces Tim Cook next week: a September event widely expected to bring the first foldable iPhone, a touchscreen Mac later this year, and the first genuinely new Apple product category in a long time.
