Exactly. But hey, 90% of mac usrs just buy it because it has the apple logo, so they can bring it to the coffee shop and it has the apple logo. that 90% of mac users will love this gimmick, for spotify etc...
Jay Fullmer, 38, yesterday became the first American to get to grips with the concept of irony. "It was weird" Fullmer said. "I was in London and, like, talking to this guy and it was raining and he pulled a face and said, "great weather eh?" and I thought "Wait a minute, no way is it great weather".
Fullmer then realised that the other man's 'mistake' was in fact deliberate.
Fullmer, who is 39 next month and married with two children, aged 8 and 3, plans to use irony himself in future.
"I'm, like, using it all the time." he said. "Last weekend I was grilling steaks and I burned them to a crisp and I said "hey, great weather"
Right move? Apple will still sell the generation you bought, just cheaper after the new ones are announced.
I think the biggest concern I have is with the ports on the new MBP*. I went back to a Windows laptop due to academic requirements and was pleasantly happy to actually be able to use ports WITHOUT adapters.
*assuming they are all USB-C

Yeah, the current MacBook Pros are amazing when it comes to ports. I think the Magic Toolbar will be cool but will end up being a gimmick, or not.
From my working world, I'm looking forward to seeing how each piece of software will utilize the MT's programmable space. Unlike you, I see lots of potential.
I would like to see Apple focus more effort innovating in the PC area. They are consistently behind current hardware especially for pro users. Eliminating ports makes more sense for a mobile device, but for a laptop many still rely on standard ports (ethernet, usb2.0/3.0, headphone, sd). The effort they put into mobile computing a decade ago is what brought many to the apple brand. It seems like much more effort has been put into prosumer markets like Apple Watch than has been put into innovating in traditional computing. I for one would like to see a hybrid os for devices like the iPad Pro that would allow root control/ terminal commands etc.
As I've already said twice in this thread, the caps lock key has long been my primary CTRL key.
Give what to you... an overly thin, thermally crippled laptop, with a bad keyboard, limited ports, and zero upgradeability options?
So when you say 'give it to me' you kind of mean ... 'rape me'?
Why are people complaining about the escape key. I didn't even know macs had an escape key. I had to take a look at my Mac and was surprised to see one.
Btw I've been using Macs since 09.
The only thing I'm worried about is the lack of ports, cause Ill most likely buy the 128gb model but have an external hard drive for additional storage. Not sure how I feel about buying an additional adapter for my USB 3 devices.

Some people, including me, hit escape hundreds of times a day. Mostly people who use the vi text editor a lot. Not having an escape key renders the otherwise excellent smart keyboard for the ipad a bit annoying (there are alternative key sequences but years of muscle memory count for a lot). I suspect the virtual escape key would irritate me quite a bit, at least until i got used to it.
Thread jumping to conclusions again about the functionality of what we've only seen so far as a blank black strip and a strip that will likely be taken up entirely for transactions as a way to alert the user to activate TouchID. We have absolutely no working knowledge of how it's actually going to operate on a daily basis, yet people are still claiming to boycott. Makes sense. Such dramatics lol.
I wouldn't expect the keyboard to be any better than the MacBook .The butterfly mechanism doesn't actually allow for deeper travel..
I think my favorite was
Which can be discerned from a picture. No details about the fan design or layout required. No benefit from going to a smaller CPU process. I saw a picture of a case so I can tell it's "thermally crippled"
