I wait for the photos & videos to get leaked online, I’m tight like that. Lol 😊

Some pizza while you’re using your MacBook? Or you’d rather eat…..

We got a picture of the food posted here! Prepare yourself to stay on the topic!!! We are officially on the radar!!! Mod's will be cracking down on this thread now!!

I have roughly about 35% of battery left on my MacBook Pro. It's a beast.

Wasting money? That's messed up and you got it all wrong dude. I told you Apple will not publish Apple Polishing Cloths are available via Apple Store Online. You need to take the stairs to the heaven and actually visit the store. Straight up!
I can barely handle her, now you’re ganging up on me 🥺😂

No more stairs to heaven, level 2 carpark is back in business. 😎
 
Is this just me or does the screen attract dust pretty easily?
There are all kinds of lint and dust on the screen already...

And I am to scared to clean it... don't wanna scratch it...
but what's the point of a cutting-edge display if its dirty...😕
Get the t-shirt out 👌 👕💻 no cleaning products or water, be very gentle when wiping the screen.

I can't bring myself to use a t-shirt... 😱 I should have a nice fluffy cloth somewhere I think... but this has to wait till tomorrow anyways... gotta be concentrated for that... so I don't mess up again... (one disaster a day is enough for me.....)
 
All truths. But better than the old iMacs with Target Display Mode! One cable charges the laptop at the same time the laptop provides video to the monitor. It has great speakers and camera, and you can plug a wired keyboard into the monitor (no recharging). I plug my keyboard through a USB-C to USB-A hub that also has ethernet. I also have a backup drive velcroed to the back of the monitor.

All this on a single cable! Grab and go is one cable away!

Also, USB-C to Lightening charges wireless keyboard, trackpad or iPhone when connected. Also syncs. I'm intrigued with your ethernet connection, though. I'll have to try moving my backup drive to the monitor.

I've been using the cloths that come with eyeglass cases. They work really well for getting rid of the occasional smudge. I'm super stingy about avoiding touching the screen.
 
This thread has a lot of replies with quotes about all kinds of topics and story lines between 2 or more people. It's hard to keep up! I am interested in many of the conversations but its hard to find replies or to know if the poster reported back. What are you all doing to keep up with the conversations? Searching by the name of the poster?

No signature required or anything--I just came home and saw it sitting there on my porch. I'm glad I got home within 10 minutes of it being delivered. :oops:

The screen looks better at home than in the store (partly because the Apple Store I visit is always extremely bright inside so the screens look dim by comparison). I love how fast it is--this computer is noticeably faster than my previous nearly-maxed out 2019 16". I love how I've had it on for a while with multiple apps open and it's not even slightly warm yet. My 2019 model would always be warm above the keyboard just within 10 minutes of turning it on.

Most of all--the display. The mini-LED looks great, love the greater screen real estate at 2x retina, already don't notice the notch. Can't wait to finish setting this up!

That’s why I’m telling, encouraging everyone to get an Apple Polishing Cloth. There’s a reason I got 10 of them. 3 of the Apple Polishing cloth’s are specifically reserved for the MacBook Pro! Exclusive the 💻 screen as well. All other fabrics are prohibited.
