"possibly with 32GB of RAM"
Are users of the current models noticing a lack of RAM making a significant difference to expected performance? If so this is a welcome possibility.
No one needs 32gb of ram.

A couple of Dell and Lenovo laptops have 32GB, though.
It uses 2x 16GB DDR4. In the latest revision with the 97Wh battery, it's battery life should be decent. Maybe even better than that of the MBP's.I don't know about the Dell
They will probably add 1 button cellAnd no doubt will fix the batteries etc etc too bad for all the suckers who bought this ver 1 lemon.. They should be ashamed at how they handled this rollout
Or leave it in deep hibernation, like Tim (Zhe Post-PC Guy)Notifications off
Siri Dead, removed from Toolbar
Bluetooth Off
Safari only
Ghostery add on to Safari
Keyboard backlight off
Autobrightness off
Screen brightness always 50-60%
Shut down completely at night when I put it away
If I think of any later that I forgot to put here I will edit this.
Nobody hates Apple.Why would you buy from a company that you hate?
From Wikipedia:
"A dongle is a small piece of hardware that connects to another device to provide it with additional functionality."
The first "dongle" I ever had was an adapter for my PCMCIA ethernet card, which adapted the proprietary thin connector on the card to a proper ethernet jack.
I think a dongle is any short wire, typically with one end of it being pretty bulky.
Yes.
Stacking 100, 36 MP images and editing huge Photoshop files with multiple layers can be very RAM intensive. Most people won't see much of a benefit from 32 GB RAM but I would love to see that in my laptop. My next desktop will have significantly more than 32.
Trying to bury the whole embarrassment under semantics? Why don't you explain again why the reduction in battery is actually a feature?Yes - eg a bluetooth dongle, a wifi dongle. Thats what they've always been down as. Hence why we also have the word adapter.
I think you just described the ideal laptopCool. More efficient monitor + Kaby lake + better battery (hopefully) = a much better version of 2016's MacBook Pro. Now, if only we can get Apple to swallow their pride and bring back the SD card reader. (No need for USB-A, but the SD card reader is a must!). Oh, and Nvidia graphics. Maybe the 1060? That would be amazing.
Kaby Lake does not support LPDDR4 so it will be no improvement in that regard. DDR4 is in the removable form factor, LPDDR4 is the tiny soldered chip variety. I haven't found any mention of a lower voltage variety of DDR4 (DDR4L)The U-series, which the macbook pro's use does support DDR4L...

Nah

Ok, well I'm going to continue using the word dongle the way everyone understands because

That's great......Apple can make the Mac thinner.......![]()
I agree, they should have made an announcement they were waiting on Intels punk ass to release KL and expect to release in 2017. Instead they gave us a half baked battery implementation. Overall I get between 8-9 hours so I really can't complain. But thats after I stripped out a lot of lights and functions and made tweaks.
Otherwise this release is actually pretty damn good IMO.
THANK GOD LG is NOT making these displays
Take their ****** image retention trash and never put it in a Mac again!
They didn't want to miss out on the holiday season. We'll get a sense in a couple of weeks with the earnings release to see if it was the right decision.I agree, they should have made an announcement they were waiting on Intels punk ass to release KL and expect to release in 2017.

But it's definitely, unarguably "I couldn't care less" only Americans say the incorrect version.
1: There is no proof my post chose to ignore progress.You choose to ignore progress.
You are factually incorrect.Too bad you're factually incorrect. Battery technology is nowhere near older and more outdated than the 3.5 mm headphone jack.
The above is irrelevant to your original claim.Do we use the same energy storage within the battery as we did with Volta? How about in the '90's? Last decade? Even last year? Batteries are getting more and more efficient with energy storage, heat transfer, etc, and it's idiotic to ignore that and call the battery, even sarcastic, more outdated than the 3.5 mm jack.
Ok you clearly don't know anything about technology and refuse to try. I'm done with ignorance.1: There is no proof my post chose to ignore progress.
2: The comment is irrelevant to your claim:
You are factually incorrect.
The above is irrelevant to your original claim.
Battery technology is recognized to have started in 1800.
Your argument on its evolution and what is currently being used today does not change that fact.
I assure you, many applications profit from 32 GB of RAM. You know, applications actual professionals use.No one needs 32gb of ram.
