And people get on me for spending too much on my PC...
Apple 10/27 Event Thread (New MacBook Pro, Updates to rest of Mac lineup)
- Thread starter -DMP-
- Start date
Thought it over....I'm keeping my Surface Book. Dedicated GPU, touch screen, detachable screen, digital pen, high resolution...it just makes more sense 
This is the first year I've gone PC for my laptop. I used to be all about Macs for those. M$ just made a superior product

Wait, do the new MBPs only have thunderbolt inputs?
First no headphone jack on the iphone, now no USB ports on the MBP
I'll stick with my much more powerful Surface Book. I was ready to cop a new MBP today, but nah...
No USB ports? Am I seeing this right?
Edit: Just did some research. The thunderbolt 3 does connect to USB. Might consider buying the 13"....I'll give it an hour to think over
so sick of apple removing ports that are the industry standard for decades now. who the fukk DOESN'T want a USB port. hell, I was mad when I copped the MBP I have last year that it only had 2 ports compared to the 4 I had on my previous HP.

it looked so damn small next to the
2015 13' macbook air i got.
the bezel on the macbook air is too big. my wife has the 11" and the screen is the same size as my 13" when u notice the size of the bezel.

Do You Believe...
nothing new on the imacs?
M$ won the round this year
For real. M$ dropped like 3 devices yesterday across the board and Apple spends all if this time to intro 1 fukking machine?
They coulda revamped their entire line, dropped prices a big and had people geeking out over that shyt.

shyt, this is fine with me. I would simply just go and cop one of the existing MBP's off the apple refurb site from 2015/2016 cheaper which would be just fine. the touch controls are cool, but it's not something I have to have. especially if that means I no longer have USB ports.

wait a minute, the new macbook pro doesn't have the thunderbolt port for your headphones if you have a new iphone 7 
Apple fanboys be like:
You paid $1600 for a 17.3 Gaming laptop with a i7, nvidia 1070?
Then turn around and be like:
Oh you dont want to pay $2k for the new 15' macbook that barely has any features? You must be a broke boy, get ya money up.

And I'm gonna do the same thing too. Probably will get a MBA but I was holding out specially for this event. The 12" MB is pure shyt and not worth copping outside of looks and I've literally not seen 1 of those shyts here in NY. I'm gonna cross shop the "old" MBP and the MBA and see what makes the most sense. Don't wanna spend more than $1100 total because I already have an iMac as my main machine running a Plex server with an external drive attached.

This Breh sitting on seven certs.
You guys know nothing about pricing. Apple's prices are high to offset demand.
