Apple celebrates – *GASP!* – the Mac in new “Behind the Mac’ videos

Apple has remembered – drumroll, please – something called “the Mac” or something to that effect. We’re not sure.

“Mac.” It sounds vaguely familiar, but we just can’t place it.

Huh.

Anyway, Apple’s made four videos and, weirdly, none of them involve smearing greasy fingers around on pristine displays, Animoji, or playing Pokémon.

The whole thing is perplexing.

It’s almost like these videos are about (drops voice to a whisper) doing real work.
