    Apple's Battery Test is a Joke

    I have an iPhone 6 that I received the day they came out two years ago. A few months back, the battery started going nuts. It would drop from 45% to 5% in an instant. Then would jump to 37% as soon as I plugged it in and then to 80%. Any video would instantly kill the battery even from a 90%...

    My mouse pointer has been jumping around.

    My mouse pointer has been jumping around lately. What's going on with my MBP? Am I being hacked, or could it be my dying battery? My pointer has been jumping around, opening up short cut menu's, and just acting with a mind of its own. What is causing this erratic mouse behavior? How do I fix?

    Would you rather see a thinner new MBP or same size?

    Personally, I'm getting upset with Apple desperately trying to make their devices thinner and lacking improvement on function. I'd rather see the new MBP have the same thickness as the 2012 model is that meant a better battery, quieter fan, and overall cooler temperature. Do you think the...
