/g/, I really like pic related. I'm a poor fag, but I'd buy with disposable income.
>>53597337
Just save up, 1200 isn't that much. I am a poorfag too and had no problem buying it.
Apple has a payment plan for poor people.
>>53597434
Now that's a bad idea. Aren't there any stores that offer 0% interest in Burgerland?
>>>/lbgt/
>>53597337
they aren't shit, but if you are a poor fag why bother getting a mac. I would only want a mac if it was free otherwise i'm fine with my asus
>>53597337
Use your disposable income to rent a server in iran and I'll get an african scammer to buy you one
>>53597337
steal one
>>53597443
The payment plans are 0% interest too, retard.

Let's not encourage bad behavior, Tyrone.

Partially wrong, fully dumb. The usual, really.

you mean tablet?
>>53598332
>implying it matters
Have you seen the kinds of shit people do on the iPad Pro? "Tablet" and "mobile" CPUs are capable of a lot nowadays.
>>53598393
it's a laptop, it makes sense to use a mobile cpu
of course it fucking matters
what are you, retarded?
>>53598558
It make sense to use the CPU best suited for the intended tasks and hardware. Core M is close to perfect for that, specially the Skylake version.
>>53597337
"Core M isn't designed to replace Intel's regular Core Series, which includes the Core i3, Core i5 and Core i7 CPU families, nor does it eliminate the need for the company's low-cost, low-power Atom CPUs. The new platform sits in-between Atom and Core Series processors in terms of price, power and performance, offering faster speeds than the Atom Z3700 series that powers many budget tablets, but slower marks than a typical Core i3 or Core i5 processor"
if you are alright with paying real-laptop money for a glorified netbook do it up.
should be fine, remote into desktop for heavy lifting
>>53597337
Literally why? If you want a MacBook that badly buy a 13" Pro, roughly the same price but better specs.
>>53598393
>"mobile" CPUs are capable of a lot nowadays
what about compiling, decoding 10-bit video and running real applications?
>>53597337
save a little more and get a MBA or MBP
that shit lags a lot when browsing(i'm not even considering facebook)
>>53598661
faster to send the files off somewhere for processing. unless it's like the video example. waiting for gigs to xfer over the net sux. then buy a pro at that point

emphasis on price, power, and performance.
that macbook is expensive. too expensive.
>>53598635
>glorified netbook
With one of the best screens on the market, NVMe SSD, godly keyboard/trackpad and 8h+ battery life. Oh and it runs all the programs you could possibly need on a laptop.
>>53598661
>compiling
Depends.
>decoding 10-bit video
Should work, link me a sample for testing. I am curious myself.
>running real applications
Define "real" applications.
>>53598696
There are hardly any alternatives if you want a great screen but a light laptop. Even Air is huge compared to the new Macbook.
rMBP or bust mate.
I have it, OP.
Typing on it right now.
It runs surprisingly well. I can play WoW on it and have 10 tabs open at once and notice no slowdowns. Would recommend,
I've thought of getting this as a sort of 'thin client' thing but I don't know if I could get used to the keyboard.
>>53598999
>one of the best screens on the market
it's not even glorified 1280x800
they have to use scaling to get it to 1280x800 effective
>godly keyboard/trackpad
the keyboard is dog shit, and the trackpad is only good for tracking. It feels like a cheap toy when you need to click.
Get a Zenbook UX305LA instead. It's much better and for half the price.
