This doesn’t really excite me as much as I thought. Things I like are definitely the touch ID, I’ll have to try the touch bar to see if I like it, smaller and thinner is good but does this mean hotter as well, it’s already hot, and I wish we had more processing boost. I also don’t like that for premium graphics now on the pro I have to pay extra. If I pick a 15 inch model the extra powerful graphics should be included, not $100 extra. Having 2 TB of storage is nice but not worth $800 more considering how much less expensive high end flash storage is on the 3rd party market. And why why why, only 16 GB? Give me a 32 option, I will pay more for that more willingly than for extra graphics power. For the price of the storage I’ll just build my own flash based NAS and store my files on the network. I don’t feel I need to run right out and replace my MacBook mid 2015 that’s 2.8 turbo boost to 4.0 ghz quad core powered anyway. Why not give me an 8 core option?
Apple, you need to start doing better, push the boundaries more and innovate more. This incremental stuff is the game of lesser players. > On Oct 27, 2016, at 1:44 PM, christopher hallsworth <challswor...@icloud.com> > wrote: > > > http://www.idownloadblog.com/2016/10/27/this-is-apples-new-oled-macbook-pro/ > <http://www.idownloadblog.com/2016/10/27/this-is-apples-new-oled-macbook-pro/> > > This is Apple’s new OLED MacBook Pro > > > > “The Mac is more than a product to us.
