Not sure why some of you are bitching about the price and components of this refresh. This laptop is such a great piece of technology. Use one before you judge. I am not crazy about the camera either but if this is that important to your daily life I would think you would use a USB version anyway. There is not a laptop on the market that is as nice as this when you look at every aspect.

Don't let Apples reality distortion field cloud your judgement. For instance how would you use a USB camera with this machine when you have something(anything really) plugged into the one (1) USB-C port on the machine. If you say make use of a hub you blow your credibility out of the water as that undermines the whole point of a compact laptop.

I would use the built in wifi on my camera to upload the photos. \

Just because someone creates heavily constructed scenarios for the sole purpose of to prove their very short sighted and narrow version of how a product (which they probably don't & more importantly won't own) should operate does not mean it is going to have any effect on the mass majority of people that the product is right for. I have never once needed to worry about more then a single USB plug when I am traveling nor have I heard of anyone that has one complain about it. When I am at home I have a dock which has connectivity for my external hard drives, monitor, iPhone/iPad/mouse/keyboard chargers and anything else I could realistically ever need to plug into the computer. When I am at work I have the same thing. When I am using my aptop out in the world I usually don't even need to bring the charging cable with me but I absolutely don't need to bring dongles or hubs in my very small laptop case.

Steve Jobs, as a pescatarian, would have never approved "an orange made from Italian calf leather". Apple meet doom. /scnr Looks amazing. Wish they would make just any nice color cover for the 12.9 Pro in leather at all.

Veal meat and calf leather are crucial parts of the dairy and meat businesses. Standards of life for the animals in most of the developed world have improved greatly in recent years. If you choose to eat beef or drink cows milk you should be eating veal too. It is the only way you can truly respect and animal that is losing its life for your dinner plate.

When Apple was elected to be the All-Knowing Oz in charge of defending our Constitution I didn't get a ballot so I'm not under their jurisdiction.

In that case it is simple don't use Apple products  

For a project codenamed "Titan" they sure are dropping the ball on their titan nomenclature.

Would make more sense for Apple to use one of its legal entities to contract Cellebrite to unlock an iPhone 5c then have to go through what would probably be a long court battle that would  open up the security flaw to the public record. 

That at is assuming that they actually did unlock the phone of course.
