Live Coverage of Apple's October 2018 iPad and Mac Event

[oldmacs]

Yep, Apple got rid of functionally everything that made it a good education product.

Yep. The MacBook Air was so popular because of all the things they've removed.

 

[L-Viz]

YAY ! Looks like space gray! I will buy!

 

[Rogifan]

This is just “catching” up. No innovation here . It’s , let’s take all the stuff from out last keynote for MBP and add it to the air .

I don’t get it. What was/is the point of the rMB if this was Apple’s plans for the MBA all along? Confusing.

 

[TMRJIJ]

Touch ID??
Am I the only one that wants Face ID on a MacBook/air/pro?

I think that would be awesome. Too bad iOS Devices always get first dips

 

[floling]

macbook air without 3.5mm jack?

 

[DEMinSoCAL]

DUAL CORE? NOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!

 

[Shanghaichica]

The key of the new MBA is the price

It’s 13 inches so has to start at 999.

 

[ChrisChaval]

MBA looking good

 

[AngerDanger]

This is going to be so expensive.

 

[redheeler]

Dual-core and LPDDR3, oof. Should've expected that.

 

[rmoliv]

Corporate Presentation Bot is stuttering a little bit.

Looks and sounds like she didn’t want to be there.

 

[Rogifan]

Graphics difference.

OK let me rephrase that. What’s the point of the rMB now?

 

[Shiro_Simba]

And headphone jack still there

 

[noobinator]

This is painful to watch.

 

[8draco8]

They are not showing the other side of it, there is probably no headphone jack, I wasn't paying attention on the first introduction

 

[Steve121178]

Disappointing that it's only dual-core...

 

[Howard2k]

Yes. Is there no headphone jack? Hahah! First Mac to take the plunge!

Pretty sure it's there on the other side from the USB-C

 

[magicschoolbus]

Macbook is now Macbook Air?

 

[xalea]

LOL Apple has a metallurgy team?

 

[Rogifan]

Yep. The MacBook Air was so popular because of all the things they've removed.

It was popular because of the aluminum frame?

 

[Omega Mac]

The MacBook Air looks like righting the macbook-line ie. no touch bar and what an entry MacBook should have been

That's my next laptop whenever I can afford the half million $ price tag

 

[DrJohnnyN]

I'm all for women being included in the keynotes.. But she's not it..

LOL, she was stumbling all over the place.

 

[Gudi]

Minutes of absolute silence in the audience...

17% less volume.

Crowd goes crazy!

 

[HoosBruce]

only 16GB ??? WTF?

I doubt those in the market for a MBA need that much even.

 

[CWallace]

Yes. Is there no headphone jack? Hahah! First Mac to take the plunge!

macbook air without 3.5mm jack?

It's on the opposite side.

 

[xalea]

People cheering over recycled aluminum.. ok.
