    Way to go!

    That's what happens when there is a doer in charge, and not a golfer!

    This is just the beginning! 

    The greatness has already begun!
    Uh, Obama creates over 200,000 jobs per month bro

    also, keep in mind that trump loves golf.

    But... but... basement-dwelling fanboys have been preaching to us that Flash is SO much more superior...

    But..but..  awww... forget it...
    Remember all those guys that said the iPad needs Flash to have a full web experience? Where are they now?

    how long bf they swap out the intel chip in the macbook to an arm processor? dropping in two A10X chips would make it a powerhouse and likely be cheaper than the single intel chip. arm compatible apps wouldn't necessarily be a problem. apple could help recompile existing apps to work on arm chips. even just converting MSFT Office, Safari, and iTunes will cover 90% of what people do with MacBooks anyways.
    You'd lose the ability to emulate Windows at a decent speed, which was a major factor in helping Windows switchers since 2006. Even though most switchers stop emulating Windows after a few months, knowing it's there if they need it helps a lot. There are also a fair number of die hard Windows users that use their Macs as a Windows machine, and that, too would go away. Even if Microsoft was magnanimous enough to compile Windows to the A chips ala RT, most Windows Apps are still x86 binaries. That all said, binary translation is possible (like Rosetta stone), and it would be interesting if Apple had their own CPUs. Then we wouldn't have a decade of SkyLake let downs and wouldn't be stuck with HDMI 1.4 and DisplayPort 1.2. And I still feel Apple switching away from x86 is more a question of when than if.
    Running Windows is not emulating it. Even compatibility layers like crossover aren't emulating Windows. Apple switching architectures *again* would be incredibly painful. That would make 4 major architecture changes over the lifespan of the Mac Line. Not good.

    What astonishes me is their need to criticize everything and anything Apple.
    It's disturbing their psychology is such that they feel so aggrieved about people being satisfied with Apple products.
    That in itself suggest what they're using can't be good in itself, or at least, good enough for them.
    Doesn't that also work in reverse for all the people here who feel the need to bash anything that isn't made by Apple? Seriously, isn't this very article just click bait for people to beat their chests and laugh about how Micro$oft sux? 
    Nobody here is specifically going to Windows forums to bash Windows or Microsoft. This article is to confirm what everyone already knows. The iPad outsells the surface.
