Apple back at it with the fuckery again

Not iOS devices.

Fuck that new keyboard they have too. Too shallow imo.


I'm pretty sure the iPhone 8 will have type C. Their MacBooks already have the ports (since 2015). A lot of electronics that came out the 2nd half of this year have Type-C connection. Motherboards, Cases & some Raid Cards. It's much better than 3.1
 
They have a sheep base that don't care. Therefore.

So would anybody buy the 15 inch mac book pro? I've always wanted one but never been able to pull the trigger. My 5 year old Sony vaio flamed out last week and I have some funds saved up for the MacBook Pro.

Bought a dell from bestbuy last week but I feel like returning it. It's a big step down from my Sony and Sony no longer makes laptops.

I've owned two Macbook Pro's and loved both of them.

2010 gave me some issues that fell under the warranty and the 2015 one I got now is great.
 
I was going to say this

USB C has been in use over the past year

OP is making it seem like they went lightening jack
Not at all my stance is about the election to not have any ports for devices that use USB3. As a macbook owner who plugs in portable HDDs, as well as DJ equipment that utilize USB ports, it being absent on the new macbook is a huge deal
 
Get the 2015 version from Apple refurb if they have any
Refurbished from Apple is like new sometimes better because they replace the battery and the screen and they check it here not like new ones inspected in China
You ever used Mac before ?
No, I have never used a mac before but my sis in law switched last year and she loves it.

My Time Machine backup wouldn't even worth without a dongle, not to mention the cord to charge my beats.

I got my mac to for development with Swift with Xcode, but deep down, I know I could have got a beast of a laptop for the money I spent on my macbook. If you like the Apple ecosystem, go for it. If you're going Windows, get a signature edition laptop. I love both my new Windows 10 machine and Macbook, just have to be more careful buying windows computers.
 
Guess they should go buy a cheap ass pc? Lol
no, they should buy a dope pc

Dongles create points of failure.
have macbooks traditionally had that problem?

that VAIO shit was a straight setup.
 
Some of y'all are missing the point. It's not just bout connecting iPhones to the macbook. It's any USB device that you'd want to connect to it. I mean damn they could've at least given 1 legacy USB port. It's not like USB devices became obsolete overnight.
Can't fight the future, homey.

I have one. If I get this new model, coming in at 4 lbs and because I'm used to this screen size, it's pretty safe to say it would be the 15 inch again

Cool, I just bought the new 15 inch Macbook pro. I am going to Delaware for Thanksgiving, so I'm getting it delivered to my sister since it's tax free. I am also getting 5% back from discover card.
 
at the end of the bgol day if you don't like it don't buy it

and life goes on
Exactly. ..
If they give me a free one....I'll hand it back to them. But I have to admit that Apple is brilliant.... Getting rid of the head phone jack will go down as the pimp move of the century. ..:giggle:
 
There needs to be a Federal Investigation into this company.

For what? Price gouging? You don't have to buy their products.

If anyone is in the market for a 2014 Macbook Air, hit me up. The wifi signal on it is shitty, but otherwise it's a great laptop. :hmm:
 
I agree but damn this is still Apple taking advantage of consumers knowing they'd have no choice but to spend the extra money for the dongles.
The key is to fight the urge to upgrade hardware or software unless you absolutely have to. People are too quick to upgrade to the latest version of software or the latest iteration of hardware without realizing that it's role is to make the previous version obsolete and you to spend more money.
 
Im looking to buy the laptop, My last Macbook i bought in 2009 and it died on me this year.

I Agree Apple is going crazy with it prices, Im still going to buy it because i have not upgraded in about 7 Years, But if you have the 2012 model i would not upgrade.

They have thunderbolt port adapters for USB devices.

Vaios are the only PCs that I could and would trust.
 
my late-2011 MBP is stilll going super strong...running PS, FC, etc like a champ! 2 years ago i maxed out the ram to 16gb, removed the superdrive and dropped in 2 1tb Samsung Evo SSD's....it was like getting a new computer!

i see no reason to upgrade at this time, though when this MBP dies i'm getting another one!
