Qualcomm to remain iPhone modem supplier in 2018, but will see orders reduced to 30%
gregg thurman said:My opinion of Qualcomm went into the toilet when I learned of their pricing practices. Since then I’ve looked forward to Apple separating from Qualcomm completely. Looks like my wishes will be coming true soon, and soon. -

Editorial: The mysterious curse of iPhone 6, lifted with... the headphone jack
Hotel rooms, friends cars, friends stereo systems, my bose QC's, all use a headphone jack. These things will all have headphone jacks for the next 5-10 years. Removing the headphone jack was a travesty and i'll never forgive Apple for it until everything is wireless. Carrying around an adapter like I have to for my Macbook is ridiculous. This is just a fact and reading all of you sucking the mega corporations proverbial junk is absolutely baffling.

Apple planning lower cost MacBook Air for second quarter of 2018
randominternetperson said:I've owned 3 MacBook Airs and love my MBPwT. Sorry you didn't clarify that the MacBook Pro you were complaining about is the non-Touchbar model. I have no experience with that one.
Edit: odd you complain about the fans. The fan(s) on my MBP rarely come on at all, whereas doing the same work on my MacBook Airs would spin up the fan regularly. Especially the original MBA was terrible from a heat dissipation perspective. You couldn't do video chats without the CPU overheating and being throttled.
My MPB is my 20th Mac and it's the best of the bunch. (Sorry, I decided to mix things up. Usually people only list how many Apple devices they've owned before they say something bad about current Apple Inc.)

Apple planning lower cost MacBook Air for second quarter of 2018
randominternetperson said:pentae said:After going from the Macbook Air to the Macbook Pro (fully specced out) I have wanted to go back to my Macbook Air. It was and still is a much, much better computer. The new MBP's (I'm on my 2nd) run too hot and chew through the battery. I feel like i'm typing on a sweaty ball sack. The new lineup of MBP's is absolute garbage.
