Well, it's slow, overpriced, obsolete, has no touchscreen, no pen, and is not suitable for pro creative apps but hey, it's thinner!

A touchscreen MacBook Pro would still be a terrific idea. I can think of many instances which would've been improved with direct screen interaction, versus trying to find the right key command or position on the trackpad.

Wait, I thought they were just charging exorbitant prices for basically the same computer... you mean they're actually innovating and putting real improvements

Fixing something that is broken is not innovating... My wife's MacBook Air speakers are so quiet she finally started carrying around a Bluetooth speaker. My Surface Pro 3 is barely loud enough for normal use, but it is much louder than any MacBook I have seen.

So glad this has been picked up by the Apple blogs in general. I have this exact issue and been trying to get answers for a couple of weeks. Genius Bar appointment next week should hopefully sort me out.
And no, it's not 'Lies'. 

First post. Did not read. 

His post was worth more of a read than your 11,000+ garbage posts combined on this forum. Seek help. Stunning you haven't been banned.

I'm a professional and I'm fine with 16GiB. Not all professionals are the same. Maybe professionals don't even act professional when posting to tech forums.

And perhaps some "professionals" don't realize that their use case doesn't necessarily match that of everyone else?

Look, it's apparently an issue for a lot of people, given the number of comments here and the number of articles discussing the fact across the web.

Besides, what are the professionals supposed to do? Just sit back and be quiet? Complaining -- publicly -- tells Apple that some people aren't happy with their choices and those complaints -- sometimes -- get translated into action by Apple.
