    Another reason for purchasing these is developing iOS applications. Apple's terms and conditions require MacOS to run on Apple hardware, which is required for XCode, which is required to develop iOS applications. I'm surprised the EU haven't done something about this yet. There's really no technical reason we can't just run MacOS on other x86 hardware on in a VM. I'm pretty much forced to use a MacBook and dual boot Windows/MacOS so that I can develop iOS applications.

MacBook Pro is faster than most Windows laptops out there due to an industry leading Wi-Fi chipset (though it's not perfect), and also for video editing since most people using Mac rely on FCP instead of something like Adobe Premiere. And what the heck does it even mean by it's faster at listening music?

                          $1800, so basically $600 for computer and $1200 for Apple logo on the back. Wow, I'm so excited to get creative.
