I can't wait to get rid of this piece of **** 128gb storage, two usb port-having, butterfly keyboard with stuck keys macbook and finally get back to a true macbook "pro" again
Once again, the chips went into fab at the beginning of April, which means a product is shipping in July. These things are easy to plot.Once again, Gurman said "as soon as early this summer", which is different.
I’m betting they’ll be shipping before the 4th of July.
With the chip shortage during the pandemic? Nahh...I don't think the 1st batch will ship this soon...if the iPad Pro release is anything to go by, I will bet it will ship 2nd half of next month, so, 2nd half of July to early Aug.
Parallels has a native version of their software for the M1 processor Macs. To run Windows you'd have to join the "Windows Insider" program - costs nothing - and then download the preview version of Windows for ARM processors. I have it running on my M1 MBP and Windows runs faster, subjectively speaking of course, than it does on my Surface Laptop 3.Can apple chip macs run windows? I haven’t been following much with any updates on this. I need parallels for a few apps I use a lot on my machine.
Was many years back. Unsure if Jobs was still alive, but I do remember them presenting new laptops as something the devs could work on.Dang, when was the last time MacBooks were introduced at WWDC ?
Fully agree hereWill be interesting to see if mini LED as mixed rumours to this year vs next year for mini LED.
Apples screens are already so good that the next major improvement will need to be something like mini LED
I suspect it will be new design this year, mini LED next year
I very briefly had 2017 just like that, assuming that's the model year you are referring to. I agree it was quite awful: noisy, keyboard felt TERRIBLE, and did I mention noisy? Horrible loud fan just by looking at it. Makes me never want a MacBook with a fan ever again, I'm spoiled by my fan-less M1 MBA.I can't wait to get rid of this piece of **** 128gb storage, two usb port-having, butterfly keyboard with stuck keys macbook and finally get back to a true macbook "pro" again
Same. Also hoping to be able to say I jumped the era of minimum ports.Once they are on the market, and I'm going to go for the 16" or whatever, I will be that Mac freak who never ever used a Touch Bar, "jumping" from MacBook Pro 15" Retina mid 2012 to the MacBook Pro 16" mid 2021...
I still see the 16" M2 MBP and the 30" M2 iMac being available earlier about the same time. The 14" MBP seems superfluous if the 16" M2 becomes available and people are still buying the less capable M1 13" MBP.I wonder if these are getting a staggered release with the larger one launching first a la the original Retina MBP.
Oddly enough people are getting used to the narrow white bezels if you are reacting to a larger version of the 24" iMac. I seen this observing customers looking at the 24" models. At first it was more of a complaint, now its the higher price you are paying for a reasonable configuration that people think most about with the 24" iMac.I really hope they don't do white bezels. That would be a deal breaker.
Nobody "needs" lots of things. But I use the SD slot in my 2014 MBP to triple the storage.nobody needs an SD card slot
i still use usb-a, but that doesn't mean we all should be getting built in usb-a ports.Nobody "needs" lots of things. But I use the SD slot in my 2014 MBP to triple the storage.
I think that’s needlessly definitive.nobody needs an SD card slot
And no doubt when the $2,499 price is announced he will say “twenty four ninety nine” as if it were a mere $25. For all their inclusiveness shtick you have to be pretty well off to buy into the system.Wow! I am super excited for MacWorld next week! Apple goodies from Santa Tim.
Why would anyone need a MacBook Pro who isn't using it to be productive?And no doubt when the $2,499 price is announced he will say “twenty four ninety nine” as if it were a mere $25. For all their inclusiveness shtick you have to be pretty well off to buy into the system.
