Apple has a list of vintage and obsolete products. And as of today Apple has added the 2018 Mac mini. By adding that Mac to the list, every single Intel Mac is now either vintage or obsolete. So what does that mean? We’ll there’s a couple of things:
- A device is vintage after five years since it was put on the market. Vintage devices can still be supported for repairs though.
- When the device hits seven years, it is given the ‘obsolete’ label. At this point, you can’t get repairs.
But the larger issue is that if you have an Intel Mac you should start considering making a move to an Apple Silicon Mac as clearly the days of Intel Macs are clearly numbered.
