If they don't say shit about MBP's at next week's event, I'm over it. Honestly, I'll get used to Windows 10 (already run 7 for gaming), and try the Linux inside of Windows feature for unix style servers.
All I want a laptop for is doing some Android and Unity stuff on the go. My old MBP is slow. Thing is 6 years old. It was a great computer, but it needs upgraded. Their current offering is so far behind everyone else. I mean, if they were like $600, that's one thing. But double that for 3+ year old tech. C'mon now.
Worst part is: People (like me) are ready to drop the money on what would still be overpriced hardware.
- SSD in your laptop already? I waited years for a new Mac Pro and ended up getting an old version and maxing it out.
Staying current is a young mans game.ideaist - Can someone tell me which laptops are better than a MBP for less money? Seems like lots of people claim this, but I can't find one.nb
- Oh nevermind I found some.nb
- i think this is the year many people jump ship.pango
- PCs', FINALLY, are really make hardware that is comparable. W10 is a nice OS, design wise is decades ahead of OSX.formed
- lol @ decades ahead ... I use both regularly and it's not that advanced or as productivity focused as you're making it out to bemonospaced
- SSD in old hardware is required, as much RAM as you can afford. CPU speeds are less of a jump in 6 years than they use to be, but bumping the GPU is a good ideaevilpeacock
- I feel the exact same way, but about an iMac. I know they're overpriced for what you get,noneck
- but I'm still willing to pay that premium, as long as it's not also 1year old.noneck
- Apple laptops are still some of the best design and build quality. That matters a lot in a product being used everyday. So yes they are overpriced but I don'tyuekit
- know if you can do a one on one comparison just by looking at hardware specs. And Windows 10 years ahead? I dunno, I still hate it :)yuekit
- I said "design wise", relax people :-)formed
- it'd take a lot to jump ship as windows is ugly as fuck, but apple are seriously on a knifes edge right now for me...inteliboy
- 'not as productivity focused' I get my work done better on my Windows machines at home and at work than i ever did on my iMac. Using OSX now is like sludge.face_melter
- Any of you thinking of switching to PC using Sketch? I use PCs but the one thing that would make me get a Mac is Sketch. There's nothing like it on PC yet.mort_
- yeah this new apple ceo suckssince1979
- is he still new after 7 years?monospaced
- I don't think you can say he "sucks", Apple has done quite well. Slow and boring, imho, but the company has done very well.formed
- what has apple done in 7 years? jobs set em up to reign.since1979
- They put 1 port on laptop...pango
- for what you say - I'd get a decent PC and switch to unix. Checkout mint. Its sort of like Windows 7.mugwart
- I hope they release something new!maquito
- like what?monospaced
