Starts at $1,299

Surface Pro 3:

Intel Core i3, i5, or i7 processors
optional LED lit keyboard

This is a very bad idea, and a huge risk for Apple. But ultimately, it's very good for the industry. Knowing the Apple fanboys, it will sell very well, which means that USB-C will gain traction much faster.

Just like not supporting flash on iOS pushed HTML5 forward.

Or maybe it will end up like Thunderbolt...

I personally like the fact that Apple uses 16:10, 16:9 is gross.

So not only do you need that $80 bulky adapter, but you need to also haul around another USB hub. So you have to have 2 fat bricks with wires attached. Really, ultra portability!

scratch that, just realized it has a type-c port as well. That doesn't change the fact that you still have one standard type A port and will need a hub for more than one device or at least another adapter cable for A to C just to plug in a second device.

You still get more USB ports in total with the 2005 Dell, but it's even worse. Not only does it still just have more, but on the Mac, you have to use 3 of the ones you have to plug in the ethernet, optical, and card reader.

They updated the 13" rMBP line too. I believe they upgraded the specs and added the new trackpad.

This new laptop is called Macbook, so I think that they are making an attempt to create a division between it and the Pro category.

For the longest time the biggest thing going against Apple was how they overpriced their products. But if you got beyond the price, their laptops, tablets, and phones are pretty solid products.

That's what people said about the g3 imac, and they were right, because people still needed to use floppy disks when the g3 imac came out.

Guess what, if something is going to be obsolete in the future, but isn't obsolete now, then you make products that have that thing now, and plan to deprecate it in the future.

Apple does shit like this because they want to be seen as making "modern computers", and people tolerate the hassle because it's apple and they can do no wrong.

Anon, Apple has not had an ethernet port on their laptops for a couple years now. It's been done with USB and Thunderbolt adapters. Even some PC ultrabooks started doing it. It's sickening.

Remember netbooks and the pull-down tab ethernet ports? The would be fine for this shit, especially if it were sturdy aluminum. But not, just force the use of an adapter instead.
>>
>>46936051
> wanting that port
This new MacBook uses a gimped version of the standard USB-C port. For example, it's not backwards compatible with Thunderbolt. Apple is probably waiting until it won't suck, like with Thunderbolt 2.

Apple actively sabotages publications that are overly critical of Apple (or at least did, back with Katie Cotton). This includes not being invited to keynotes.

Since Apple news generates a lot of clicks, most mainstream publications that don't have a clear agenda (like say, an Android blog) would rather stay on Apple's good side.

It's fucking stupid to care about that, honestly. Everyone I know just buys a nice 1080p logitech and throws it in their bag.

Come on, guys. They put in a retina screen on this thing. They had to get the pixels from somewhere, taking them from the camera was the best approach.

well if you have 2 USB type C devices, not only do you need a second dongle, you need a USB C ---> standard USB adapter to use with the spare USB A port!

what about ethernet access on this macbook?

my theory is that 480p pictures and videos are smaller than higher resolution but big enough to see your face clearly. this makes it easier for background services to upload the continuous stream of apple video into the cloud where you will be monitored in case of an emergency.

Whats the big deal, you can use the dongle and attach your thumbsticks, and you can charge it wireless at the same time with Apple's "WAVE" Charging system.

He already pointed that out. I was just saying the difference in price must be related to 4 times more storage and 2 times more RAM.

And the apple tax, ofc. The thing is the Surface is not really a laptop, it's a new concept, a tablet with laptop hardware in it.

Macfags are used to not using their usb port. They live in the 21st century with bluetooth mice and fast reliable wifi.

Only having 1 port is not a problem. Having a tablet processor in a $1000+ laptop is.

One port. after 3 months when the battery is shit it has to sit on charge all the time. use its only slot to keep it powered on. cant even use a standard thumb drive

As a longtime Mac sysadmin and Mac user, I'll be the first to say I don't really see a use case for this laptop _yet_. It's only real claim to fame is that it's a tiny laptop with a gorgeous screen - everything else is quite lackluster.

Like the first generation MacBook Air, which was overpriced and underpowered, this too will be largely irrelevant for 18 months until it receives a refresh, and Apple finds a solid place for it in the lineup.
>>
>>46937547
Nah, I don't want it. I'm just wondering why the fuck they didn't put it on all their new stuff. Get some shit that works on all their notebooks, sell more overpriced dongles.

They did. They only made one new thing today, and it's the new MacBook laptop. All the rest of the laptops got internal refreshes, not redesigns. They're not going to reinvent the wheel for each product category.

>>46938160
This may come as a huge shock to you, but there are lots of companies with heavy Mac bases, and they need someone to manage them just like every other computer. Mac Admins are in more places than you think.
>>
Meaning female community and all SJW male members plus gay members have no idea what apple is selling at high price. Its shit. But guess what these are majority of people and they will buy it because brands like apple that has a price tag and fashion points wet their vagina and dicks. The thing is apple know this fact and /g faggots fail to acknowledge this and keep shit posting again and again.

Google has 16,000 Macs. Facebook has 9600. Square, Yelp, Wired, New Relic, Lookout, Pandora, Spotify, Virgin America, Pinterest, Etsy, Pixar, Disney Animation, etc. are all startups/tech companies/companies with heavy mac bases.

I'm not saying they're entirely Mac based. I'm saying they have large numbers of Macs, and they need to be managed - just like Windows machines, and Linux machines.

Apple works exactly as fashion work. Name a thing that rich people use even if they don't. All the sub humans now buy that thing because they think it makes them closer to rich people. People like to be distinguised. They want to be called unique. This is chimp like genetic algorithm that still resides in most of humans. Mostly females and gay people. People like Richard Stallman have too futuristic genes that deny this algorithm and make open source software to compensate for the reclusion from major community of chimps.
