Sorry if it's stupid question
In Apple website when they say ..
£1,999.00
Includes VAT of approx. £334.00
does that mean I will pay £1999 or £2333 ??
You will pay £1,999, or £1,665 if you are outside the EU or ordering through a VAT-registered company in the EU.
guys ever since the news of the oled panel I've been curious and sorta concerned on how Apple will implement changing volume and brightness. those are the two functions that I use daily. I love that I can change volume/brightness basically not looking at the keyboard.
however with these new leaked pictures of the MacBook Pro with Apple Pay, I think I have an idea on how Apple will implement this and in a way that I won't have to take my eyes off the display (muscle memory)
This idea came to me because I was wondering, "what if I want to change brightness/volume but Apple Pay is in the way? Am I just stuck until I close out of the browser?". Now here is my idea. To change brightness. hold the "fn" button and the left half of the Oled display becomes a big slider for brightness (and the right half is for volume). a swipe to the right (on the respective part of the oled) increases and a swipe to the left decreases volume/brightness.

What do you think? I'm inside an Apple Store. OF COURSE I'm drunk!
I can't wait for a student with the new rMBP to be watching porn or an awkward sounding video in the middle of class or the library and can't figure out how to mute their laptop in a hurry.

Also, there is a prohibited area with a lot of MB air and pros. I'll try to ask what's going on.
Oh, interesting. Let us know wha you found out!

This literally happened once in my lecture last year. no joke. dude panicked and slammed his laptop lid down. however it was some Windows laptop so I guess it was still waking up from sleep and it kept playing the porno sounds. I haven't seen a guy run so fast out of a lecture with a moaning laptop since then.

but isn't that just a fan render? not official? I have a dell xps m1330 with touch sensitive volume buttons and I literally can't stand them. I still don't know which button I'm pressing and I've been using this laptop for a year. that is why I came up with my idea.
You do that

Let's see what is being announced (should start in 15 minute)
An AIO is expected, as for a Surface Book 2 / SP 5?
Well the first hour of their event was a **** show. Lets hope the rest is better for their sake. Looks like the hardware stuff is starting now...
Or it will continue as the Kaby Lake MBP thread. Although there is already one that exists, this thread has a unique reputation.
Front row press using macbook airs hehe
Surface is a nice product. Well designed, solid build, cool alternative for folks who don't care for the Apple ecosystem. Shame they don't have quad core laptops.
Yeah, like prior waiting threads, this will be unstuck and locked
It stays open as long as we are waiting.
All Mac fans will spontaneous combust in a ball of nerdy flames
That was confirmed with the leak in June and they were always going to do that.
How is that different to the aftermath from any other Apple event?All Mac fans will spontaneous combust in a ball of nerdy flames
wait. when will the thread close? if Apple during the keynote announces the new sky lake laptops are available immediately (Thursday). can you guys let this thread be open till Sunday so we can say our goodbyes? this is the first time I've participated in a thread online and I've gotten emotionally attached.
Wow @ Microsoft Event.
I think it is time to say goodbye to Apple.

There's a big world outside this thread, you really should explore it.wait. when will the thread close? if Apple during the keynote announces the new sky lake laptops are available immediately (Thursday). can you guys let this thread be open till Sunday so we can say our goodbyes? this is the first time I've participated in a thread online and I've gotten emotionally attached.
FTFY, I mean they spend a good deal talking about graphics and not a single detail about the graphics chip in the Surface Book -_-
Yeah, Surface Book only $2399, what a bargain. And it's not available anywhere.
