    What's ironic is that Apple does all their mechanical CAD work for their products in Siemens NX running in Windows VMs.

    I had no idea they published this to the general public.

      A huge ecosystem of third party accessories, cases, skins, etc.

      The openness is easily worth it.

        That’s obviously the people who are really using it, but I assumed you had to pay Apple to get it.

        So either you made your own measurements or if you were doing Made For iPhone and they would give it to you as part of that program which surely you must have to pay for.

      For accessory manufacturers?

      It's so we can make cases.

    Even the drawing of the Vision Pro feels heavy.
