    MacBook Air has Fifth-generation Intel Core i5 and i7 processors not Intel Core m.. they use them on MacBookS. its Powerful enough to push the Pixels. Apple doesnt want loose the battry life on MacBook Air.Fifth-generation Intel Core i5 and i7 processors eats more battry than Intel Core M. that is the only resone Apple hold back the retina display on MacBook Air.

              Apple is at it again!! This is why the only thing of Apple's I use is OS X . . but I sure as hell don't use it on their hardware!! Thank God for Clover and TonyMacX86!!

              Apple Tech Dev #1: I'm so excited about integrating DDR4 into the new MacBooks!!

              Tim Cook: Skylake still has support for DDR3L right?

              Apple Tech Dev #1: Uuhh . . yeah . . but why would we . .

              Tim Cook: (interrupts) Why would we integrate DDR4 slots into our hardware if have a bunch of unused DDR3 cradle assemblies sitting in warehouses?! Just use DDR3L!! Our customers are sheep, they won't know the difference. The people using Macs for their intended purpose of audio & video editing and rendering will always go for the Mac Pro, so we don't have to worry about the average customer noticing our scheme.

              Apple Tech Dev #2: Wait . . WHAT?! Why would we even make the upgrade to Skylake if we're just gonna use old memory tech?! We already have to change the BGA socket, the chipset socket, voltage regulation, and a bunch of other stuff . . so why do all that work to upgrade the Macbook if we're going to leave out one of the best features of Skylake??

              Apple Tech Dev #1: (whispers) ::::shut up bro, you clearly don't understand how it works here::::

              Tim Cook: No no, he doesn't understand, so let me clarify . . We CLAIM to be innovative and technologically relevant, but in reality, we know our customers will blindly buy whatever we tell them to. Besides, we need to use up that old DDR3 hardware. We'll integrate DDR4 into our laptops in a few years . . when it's almost irrelevant . . (evil laugh) . . HA HA HA HA HA HA!!!

              Apple Tech Dev #2: YOU'RE A MONSTER!! I'M GOING TO EXPOSE THIS WHOLE COMPANY FOR THE RACKET IT IS!! (why won't my iPhone work in here?)

              ::::::BANG!!:::::
              ::::::THUD::::::

              Tim Cook: (holding smoking gun) Does anyone else wanna talk further about DDR4 integration??

              Apple Tech Dev #1: NO SIR!! I'LL GET RIGHT ON THE SKYLAKE UPGRADE, BUT WITH DDR3L!!

              Tim Cook: Good . . I am glad you understand how we do things here at Apple (puts hands together in "pyramid of evil contemplation") . . (evil laugh) . . HA HA HA HA HA HA HA!!!!!!!!!!!!!

                      LOL high ram doesn't really help that much with games. the 13 inch Asus Zenbook ux303ub has a i7 6500u and nvidia gt940m, also costs about the same as the macbook. but zenbook more suitable for gaming

                        The Core M Skylake is probably the most revolutionary Intel chipset since Haswell.
