Over the years, there have been some downright terrible Macs. But which were the worst of all? The seven Macs here could be the worst Apple computers ever made.

Apple likes to portray its Macs as the best, most innovative computers in the world, so it can be easy to forget that the company has released some real stinkers over the years. Not every Apple computer has been a hit — some have been downright awful.

Apple was a mere four years old when it launched the Apple III, which raises the question of whether the computer’s failure came down to inexperience or hubris. Whatever the case, the Apple III was swiftly tossed down the memory hole, never to be seen again. Macintosh TV Almost 30 years after its launch, the Macintosh TV remains a strange curiosity in the history of Apple devices. As its name suggests, it combined a computer and a TV into a single product, yet it was a case where the whole was definitely not greater than the sum of its parts.

It was meant as a showcase of cutting-edge computing technology, and it even came with a concierge delivery service, but Apple’s marketing team allegedly pivoted it from a mainstream device to an expensive collectible priced too high for the masses. Apple is renowned for its design chops, but the 2013 Mac Pro seems to have been one time the creative teams got a little overenthusiastic. The device was formed into a cylindrical shape, with components arranged around a central column that dissipated heat.

The device felt like it was the result of a challenge issued to Apple’s engineers: how thin and light could they possibly make a laptop? Looked at one way, the designers succeeded, because the 12-inch MacBook was truly a thing of beauty. By far Apple’s most lightweight laptop, it felt almost impossibly slimline.
