xyrotic, 12 Jul 2018lmao buy all those cable for future proofing .Buying 3 cables for hdmi, vga and dispaly port is cheaper than buying one dongle that doesn't them all and one usb 3.0, while i have 3-5 usb 3.0 and one more thunderbolt port plus a mic and an audio jack, oh yeah an sd card reader as well. So how come i pay less for more, can customize it towards what i need and i look like the one missing out on the future that will come after i buy my next notebook and for you never since what i've noticed apple products are so future proofed their illogical.

I also have my 2009 dual core Samsung laptop still going strong. Changed adapter once, no other issues.
Currently using Asus ROG. Other two laptops used for NAS

I have MacBook Pro mid 2008 and it still works (CD drive died and as card seldom allows write). Much slower than it used to be, but it works! None of my pc laptops lasted more than couple of months. I used 2016 MacBook and 2017 and they are great pieces of technology. Even if overpriced, I still see a lot of value in them, which I cannot say about iPhones.

In my opinion, I would just get a good PC for much less. If I want good configuration, I'll just upgrade it. Apple will just keep charging exorbitant prices. I don't want to keep carrying a computer wherever I go; my phone is causing enough trouble already :/

Oh wait, you like having a dongle for everything, including your stick.

Well when apple will sell its notebooks for price of HP notebooks or Xiaomi phones i will find interests othervise i wont spend a penny on this overpriced garbage worth not even half the price they asking for.
Paying 50% of device price for apple sticker on it its not my cup of cofee.

[deleted post]Lol true.
I still think the best laptop Apple makes is the Early-2015 MacBook Pro 13" Retina. Its slightly downgraded in some specs compared to the 2017, and now, 2018 models. However, as a practical laptop it is better because it has a much better keyboard, ports, and battery size.
I was lucky to get mine in Mid-2015 at a 34% off. I see no reason to upgrade.
And if I do, it will probably be to a Windows Laptop... I cannot stand the "dongle life".

Luxor, 12 Jul 2018I thought Apple getting rid of Intel soon.That was for iPhone modems. They might still be working on beastly AsomethingX and make macOS compatible with ARM, and then bridge x86 apps or offer a tool to convert them.
