1. If you’re a software developer, or a video engineer, or an audio engineer, or you’re doing CAD drawings, they make the best laptops on the market. It’s fully worth the $5,000 for your business. It’s an absolutely fair and honest price.
2. If you’re anyone else, it’s ridiculously overpriced and absolute overkill to ogle photos on Facebook.
Given that the majority of Twitter users fall into the latter category, the general feedback from the internet is always going to be misleading.

Initial review: I used the laptop for an hour this morning and the battery showed 100%. Wow. Speed wise I haven’t pushed anything difficult at it, but the fans haven’t come on and it’s still cool to the touch. I love the screen to edge, the industrial body is underwhelming but I love the etched MacBook Pro on the back. I hope to use this machine for 5 years at a minimum.
