Yeah but now imagine they were part of a sixty year old computer. Kind of a waste if you ask me.
The electronics here will be grossly obsolete within five years.
I wasn't implying there was a need for a sixty year old computer, just that some natural materials are superior to their substitutes.
I got that, I was just repeating the number. My point is that leather is more durable than is necessary for a consumer electronic, especially one from Apple which has made ~~planned obsolescence~~ continuous innovation a cornerstone of their business.
