This isn't really a ham radio story but is of interest nonetheless. Apple has decided to allow its customers repair their own devices, starting with the iPhone 12 and 13 models, followed by Mac computers using M1 chips. Apple's Self Service Repair kits will give users access to genuine Apple parts, tools and manuals in order to do their own repairs, starting with displays, batteries and cameras. The company says the kits will be available in the U.S. in early 2022 and expand to other countries as the year goes on. Apple will also give customers credit toward their parts purchases when they return old parts for recycling.
