  • Review: Apple's Late-2016 MacBook Pro without Touch Bar

    Is it now possible to plug 4 chargers and charge this thing up in 5 minutes?

    The Surface Studio is so much more exciting then this thinner Mac book.

    boring.
    stale.
    Tim Cook.
    You mean, in terms of portability?

  • More reports circulate suggesting a late-October MacBook Pro, MacBook Air refresh

    If they care about the Mac, as Apple repeatedly re-iterates, and the Mac is so overdue, and might have significant new features such as the OLED strip, then they need to make an event.

    Jet black with "invisible" touch bar would be beautiful.
    Yeah, just like the black space ship in the Hitchhikers Guide through Galaxy!

  • Inside the 2016 MacBook Pro -- CPU choices

    I am a pro user since 2000 and i believe Apple's story became unbelievably self centered, egostistical, no longer "havin a dream" to create greatest products but continuing the milking process of people who wants to show off. Well, i can not believe that i say this (even to my self) but with this non-professional attitude, i am out of Apple's citizenship. 
    What is this?
    Compare Dell or HP to a Mac Pro? I mean is this a joke?
    Compare Alienware to Mac Book Pro?

    I am missing the days we had Final Cut and FC Library, Shake.. even QT Pro, even Pages 9.
    Now we have bunch of non sense crApple. They are supposedly updated but for any pro user they were seriously downgraded.
    And the sad part is Adobe CS not great either for Professional updates.
    What, microsoft? God no. Google? Nope, definitely not.
    God help us. 

    And we pros loved Apple, we made Apple what it is.
    Now, Apple lost us! 
    I have to agree with lots you say – although I don't want to agree. I once thought Pages is a superior product. Even more so with Keynote. Both still are my primary tools in this sector. But I can't believe how few progress there is with both programs. And how many bugs these have. It doesn't seem to be the most complicated software to write. These really should be some much more rock solid products. Something similar could be said about MacBook Pro – but my hopes are still high Apple will soon release a convincing update. I'm ready for it.
