danvm said:The issue is that with the Mac Pro I need to spend $6K if I need a device with internal expansion and better thermals than the iMac Pro or the Mac Mini. With HP, Dell and Lenovo I have more flexibility and can configure a device that…

danvm said: Your are right about the Z4 and the Xeon W-2100. But like I posted before, I did a similar configuration with the Z6, with a current 8-core Xeon W-3223, and it went for $4850 including the 3-yr onsite warranty. Again, we have to w…

danvm said: I'm not fudging numbers, I just use what Apple and HP have in their respective websites today. And that's what Apple did in their keynote, when they compared the Mac Pro to a HP Z8, even though they are in a different line, since A…

tenthousandthings said:That doesn't negate the point that HP offers lower-tier "prosumer" towers that Apple does not -- it just negates what you've just said here. It also doesn't negate madan's basic point, which he could easily have made witho…

rwx9901 said: I don't know that you can get 0-50% charge on an 18W charger. You can with a 45W. iPhones will only draw 18 W max. There’s no point in getting anything larger than 18 W. The iPhone 11 Pro Max has a 15 WHr battery. The 18…

fastasleep said:You're assuming that most people think the same way as you. They don't, which is why Apple still sells a shit ton of Macs and has the customer sat ratings that it enjoys. My 2018 MBP is my favorite Mac ever, and yes, I've used th…
