Yes, but their criteria calls for light above all else. That's literally what they say, I grill them for every single purchase!
I mean, if you care more about looks than performance and the better screen, then you didn’t need one in the first place. Save some money and get the Air.
A piece of paper is considerably lighter than any laptop I am familiar with. Hand them a piece of paper and they're set.
Every MBP since 2008 is a variant of the original unibody, but the Titanium and original aluminum Power and Mac Books are totally different designs and constructions (skinned structural frames rather than unibodies that combine structure and skin into one piece of aluminum). The new MBP is still a unibody, but it has the most substantial change in shape since the introduction of the Unibody concept, one that fits with the design language of the iPad Pro, Air and mini as well as the iPhone 12 and 13 lines. It also happens to look a little more like the Ti Book than any Mac since, which, to me, is a nice change since I still think the Ti book has the best overall 'look' of any Apple Laptop, even if it was a fragile and heavily flawed design.
They know I can act like a smart @ss sometimes, but they also know I take my job seriously, after all, I do like eating and paying my bills.
Mate, maybe you should just buy yourself a new jacket or something, because I fear you're confusing a productivity tool like a laptop with a fashion item designed to make you look good!
So, clearly, you post in jest. But there are many other posts where people just seemingly order almost in expectation that they can try it out and return it. Don't people feel slightly guilty about this? If there is genuine reason to return then absolutely fine, but I can't help feel people are taking the mickey out of a generous return policy. Ultimately people over ordering and returning are costing apple money which in turn is passed on to customers, and negatively affecting stock levels preventing others from getting machines quickly.
Why do you want the mods to ban someone just because you don’t agree with them?
As an obviously intelligent individual, didn't you consider the weight and dimensions before you pressed that last button on your order? How do you get yourself to the point of spending a large sum of money without considering these obvious metrics?
This suggests that thickness and weight are not the primary criteria but rather fit for purpose is.
I'm currently tempted to get a 16 inch version, knowing full well I don't need the power, but knowing that I'd rather have a decent amount of screen as whilst I need some portability I'm not going to be carrying it round all day every day. Anything 13 inch is just too small, so a modern fast 15 inch would be perfect for me, without the out and out power of these new machines.
