Look at Jony's designs, everything from the first iMac to the soon to be released Mac Pro can be boiled down to a rectangle with rounded corners. 20 years of the same core element has caused it to become stale.
Or maybe just maybe market decided that this was actually the best form factor for computer so far? Maybe also not unrelated to the fact that screens are rectangle...
You can’t blame Apple as it’s one of the few company that actually tried alternatives... that market rejected.
To name a few : the twentieth anniversary Mac, the "Luxo" iMac, and more recently the trashcan MacPro
Yeah, the designer who shat out the worst keyboards on the market, which cripple $4000 computers... and then doubled down on the grossly defective design by putting condoms under every key.
This is after deleting a dozen useful keys and replacing them with an asinine and embarrassing emoji bar... again on a "pro" computer without even offering the option to get rid of it... and yet that option exists on the non-"pro" Air.
The designer who declared that you don't want more battery capacity in your mobile device, so users are carrying power bricks and wads of wire around with them and begging bartenders to plug their iPhones in, or crawling under tables in public places to do so.
The designer who removed headphone jacks from MEDIA-CENTRIC phones, phones that are supposed to provide access to streaming-media services and the future of Apple.
The designer who turned out a computer with, in effect, no I/O ports.
The designer who championed peek-a-boo UI and the idiotic "flat" look, where using software is now an Easter-egg hunt with many controls disguised as plain text and the states of others indistinguishable.
And I don't even care if he ripped off earlier designers. The real problem is that he has waged a war on USEFULNESS that has driven the mobile-phone market and computer markets BACKWARD.
