Apple ponies up for poor keyboard design
 

A butterfly flaps its wings, and Apple's reputation drops down the loo

Fruity cargo-cult Apple has started making payments to users who were unfortunate enough to buy one of its MacBooks with the god-awful butterfly keyboard.

Users who had to replace either individual keycaps or the whole keyboard, may be eligible to claim part of a $50 million settlement reached after a class-action lawsuit. The law firm handling the settlement has been emailing class members since mid-December but users have to get their claim in fast as the deadline is 6 March.

Claims can be submitted via the keyboardsettlement.com website, which says that the settlement class includes “all persons and entities in the United States” who purchased a butterfly-equipped MacBook, MacBook Air, or MacBook Pro between 2015 and 2019.
