    My mid 2014 13" macbook pro (retina) has been acting really weird. Two days ago after I powered it up, the mouse started going crazy, moving all over the place, and eventually stopped moving, and my trackpad hasn't worked ever since.

    Hello everyone, I am the proud owner of a new 15 inch 2018 MacBook Pro. I just opened the box and noticed that the Touchbar looks a little off.

    Hi all, I was really hoping for an iMac update today, but it was not to be. That said, what do you all think would be a good option for light (maybe occasionally mid) video editing? (the iMac pro is unfortunately out of my range) would the current iMac still be option? or should definitely I...

    Mac Book Pro 2016 Screen Issue

    Need some advice! My 2016 MBP has started showing thin horizontal lines in one corner (see pic). Ran a diagnostic on it and it came up with nothing. Any ideas what this could be and how fast it progresses, since I won't be able to bring my Mac in to service for a few weeks.
