“Apple’s SF Symbols 4 Library: A Comprehensive Collection of Icons for Consistent App Design”

Apple has a library on the web SF Symbols 4 containing nearly 4,500 different icons and images that developers can use to give apps a consistent look. Images are available in vector form, so they can be recolored and scaled as desired.

They are divided into roughly 30 categories, and Apple paid great attention to the “Devices” section. It has various icons representing several generations of iPhones, iPads or Macs.

In the case of computers, it is spicy that generic words such as computer or laptop are represented by iMac and MacBook, while it also has several different images for desktop Macs, under the word PC it shows a large CRT monitor with an aspect ratio of 4:3 and graphics typical of the so-called BSOD, blue Windows screen of death.

Microsoft has its own icon sets (in design styles Metro a Fluent), but Apple did not reciprocate with the same coin. Modern technology is represented there by the universal words laptop, cellphone, tablet or monitor, and it does not have special graphics for Surface computers (let alone Macs).
