I am more than happy to spend $5k+ on a laptop, especially now that we have 6 cores, 32GB of ram, 4TB ssd's, and eGPU support. However, being 2018, I can't believe that it doesn't have a 4K display. 

A 4K display means absolutely **nothing** on any portable device. 4K is a technology (spec) that is meant to be shown on very large displays, not a computing device. This is an affectation for people to demand/want 4K resolution if what they actually mean are simply more pixels. No one is going to watch a movie in 4K on their laptop and believe it was precisely the same experience as seeing that projected properly on a much wider canvas.

If anything, one still can't believe that the display isn't more edge-to-edge. This continues to make the entire MacBook line still appear dated.

It seems inevitable at this stage that every developer is going to create a “pro” version that will also become a subscription.

To be more accurate, you mean 81% of their *parents* will be buying them iPhones. Teens don't have their own money.
