| 0:00.0 | Mayo, 2024 is coming to a close this week, and we thought we do our year-in review recap of all of the hardware from this year. |
| 0:08.6 | We have Vision Pro. We have new iPhones. We had a whole bunch of Macs. Kind of a busy year for hardware, I'd say. |

| 1:31.8 | And when we were prepping for this and I was looking at the show notes and going back through press releases, |
| 1:36.4 | I had kind of forgotten that, like, Vision Pro has been a thing in our lives for 18 months at this point, |
