Sorry, but I still am in awe over how this is supposed to be a PROFESSIONAL tool, yet Apple is catering to the vapid masses of casual users with highly disposable income.
Give us a choice at least? A lot of engineering, graphics and software developers like the convenience of a powerful laptop, something they can pick up and bring to a boardroom to demonstrate something they are working on, and then go back to their desk and dock it for the other 90% of the time they are working. If Apple can't make a laptop last 2 - 3 hours on a battery, even with 32gb of RAM, which is the worst excuse I have ever heard BTW, then they need to step away from this market and stick to making cameras.
Yet so many people here are siding with Apple because they don't personally need 32gb of RAM and this screams of how many people here are simply not "professionals".
How about Apple do something I N N O V A T I V E, like since they design the OS and commissioned the hardware from Intel, how about supporting a mode where on battery you only use 16gb, but on wall power you can use the whole 32gb. You know, the system dynamically addresses RAM to better conserve energy as appropriate? I know that could be a little tricky to implement, but nothing throwing a few billion of ill-gotten profits into couldn't solve.
Instead all Apple did was create a touch bar so that it makes it easier for "professionals" to pick emojis to put into their social posts.
Phil Schiller, or rather Phil "Shiller", doesn't know what a professional does on the devices he is in charge of shilling to consumers and tries to dismiss ******* decisions, probably by Tim Cook, that are crippling the brand.
