Bloomberg: MacBook Pro with new 'touchscreen strip'

Jesus I am glad I bought the current gen rmbp.
I joked with some coworkers the early 2015s will go down in history as the last good Apple laptops.
Tim Cook is running the company into the ground and creating disparity with in for job growth.
I was offered a job with them earlier this summer and it was just no good....
I don't see them staying in personal computers too much longer. Even the die hards are waking up myself included.

This didn't happen.

>>56042173
Yes it did; they wanted me to be a customer service rep for them at home and they wanted me to sign a contract making me essentially theirs for 2 years.
I wasn't having it. I would have considered the position if I wasn't locked in.
I am currently enrolled at a major United States public University studying Informatics with a focus in cyber security.

Oh, right.

>>56042193
So we agree, it never happened

god damn it

>trying this hard to cull your buyer's remorse
How convenient that the laptop you purchased is the last of the good Macbooks. Even though the last of them were years ago.

>>56042193
You sound like a poo-in-loo pajeet

>>56042132
>Apple is also expected to include USB Type-C on the new MacBook Pro, alongside a Touch ID fingerprint reader.
Where were you when Thunderbolt was pronounced dead?

The line hasn't been updated since 2012 you dumbass, You bought an overpriced 3 year old laptop

Lmao anon you're just a pajeet from home. I know the program. They lend you an desktop and you have to get a phone line and you take calls nonstop from idiots that don't know how to use their computer.

That's a nationwide uni program and that's not a job with apple in the way you're making it out to be. You make it sound like you shot down a job at cupertino. No, it's basically the same pay as working at the fucking apple store.

I also shot down a job with Google anon, they wanted me selling android phones at a kiosk at my local mall.

why are you lying on the internet?

>>56042296
Apple Thunderbolt-MiniDP-to-USB-Type-C adapter, for only $89.

It just works.

>>56042284
May not be a job in Cupertino but I still would have been able to put Apple on my resume and the fuckwit companies in Chicago wouldn't have known any better.
They make the position in such a way it looks like a glorified internship; much better than retail.
Also, I'm white.

>>56042132
>The new MacBook Pros are said to be slightly thinner than current models
HERE WE GO AGAIN

Do you understand the difference between a connector and a protocol?

They know their company is going down the tubes.
They really needed that ass hole Jobs.

>>56042322
>Thunderbolt 1 and 2 use the same connector as Mini DisplayPort (MDP), while Thunderbolt 3 uses USB Type-C.

>May not be a job in Cupertino but I still would have been able to put Apple on my resume and the fuckwit companies in Chicago wouldn't have known any better.

They definitely would have. Make no mistake.

>>56042510
It's all in how you market it anon.
Look it is irrelevant I didn't take the job I am not game to signing my life away for 2 years mostly because I wanted the opportunity to pursue internships in the Bay Area next summer.

>internships in the Bay Area

>markets go in to a dive when DB collapses

No you are not because no one in the US calls CS "Informatics"

I give up

To be fair what is the competition doing?
It's either MBP clones that are finally somewhat decent, or gimmicky devices with detachable keyboards and/or hinges that flip beyond 180*
Apple can sit on their ass for 5 years and still wont lose market share in the over 1000$ laptops.

I don't know why they are so intent on abandoning the high end PC market. Getting graphics, video, 3d and audio pros using Macs was very effective advertising for their brand.

It would have cost them very little to keep the Mac pro, macbook pro and OS X maintained enough for those users in comparison to the free advertising.
