Even Apple has spelling mistakes on their website

I am currently considering to purchase a MacBook as next computer, returning to the Apple world after a long hiatus (we used to have a Mac Performa in my childhood / adolescence).

Yesterday I saw this text on the Apple website, and notified the press contact.

Then I saw two more small mistakes in the text. If you speak German, can you spot the one in this snippet?

Apple is a huge company. They have literally billions of dollars at their disposal. They strive for perfection. But even Apple is not able to avoid all mistakes.

What about us mere mortals, then?

Perfectionism is deadly, literally deadly because it creates unnecessary stress on the body. Unnecessary – because people still buy Apple products, even if there are a couple of small spelling mistakes in their press releases.

I myself even do not consider these mistakes to be indicative of them being able to deliver a powerful, well-functioning notebook.

In other words: they don’t matter to me. I just notice them.

So then, if we only have limited energy in this life, why waste it on being flawless? Because there’s no such thing.
