Is this the most comfy laptop out there?

not close to even the best macbook

Needs 4 more inches.

hah

really though I wouldn't be surprised if apple discontinued the air model. the newest retina is already thin enough and for everything else like browsing the internet, answering emails and the occasional shitposting on 4chan there's the ipad

what the fuck
>>
>>56651175
Been running a refurb 11" c2d the last 5 years. Replaced the trackpad out of warranty for $60 once and that's the only problem I've had with it. Will probably replace it with whatever refurb is sitting on the site next year. Good laptop
>>

>discontinuing the most popular Apple laptop by far
Not going to happen until the new Retina model costs the same as the MacBook Air.
>>
I like my 13, it's super comfy while laying down.
>>
>>56652107
What do you use it for? Do programs like Photoshop and Chrome work smoothly?
>>
>>56652107
I have a c2d one too, but 13". Truly the GOAT laptop, durable as fuck, thin and light as fuck but with more than one USB port, and still fast for almost everything. Been thinking about replacing it because of having just 4 GB of RAM and the battery capacity decreasing too, but it's still so good for most things I do I can't really justify buying another one and I keep postponing the purchase.

>>56652294
Not him, but similar laptop here: Don't know about Photoshop, but Chrome still works fine and smoothly. I have a more modern (i5 I think, 8 GB) Windows laptop at work and I can't notice the difference when browsing the web. This thing also still runs things like heavy Java IDEs (IntelliJ) just fine, although some others like Xcode choke a little bit. The biggest issue for me is the RAM size. Also it's possible that Apple with drop support for it on the next OS X.

Admittedly I'm not a power user doing anything heavy duty. Just excel and email for business (market vegetable garden), Firefox with ublock/umatrix for web (I'm weirdly obsessed with having a bookmarks sidebar so I've stayed with FF since I switched from IE waay back in the day), 720p movies play fine. itunes runs like shit, but over time I've kind of offloaded that to spotify on my phone plugged into the stereo.

>>56652522
this has been my exact same experience. I'm in the habit of running hardware until catastrophic failure not worth fixing before I replace it. I had a 3GS from like 2011 until this spring when the headphone jack died. BIG problem if I can't have music and podcasts in the field
>>
>>56652749
Is that your field? Looks really nice :)
>>
>>56651175
the 13" version is, yes
>>
>>56651175
Fucking hell look at those huge bezels
>>
>>56651175
Poo in the fucking loo Rajeesh.
>>
>>56651613
11" might go, 13" is likely to stay as the "cheap" mac.
>>
>>56651175
Nope, the XPS 13 wins by a huge mile.

That isn't a 17" MacBook Pro with 1920x1200 screen.

I laughed my ass off when they got rid of the only MBP worth buying.

Screen was nice and was made out of more aluminum than a small car.

What is the point lads?

It can't do anything apart from shitpost, so why not just get a cheapo windows one like this https://www.asus.com/uk/Notebooks/ASUS_EeeBook_X205TA/.

BUY THE AIRPOD EARPIECES NOW WHILE SUPPLIES LAST

SO MAGICAL

13 inch air is the best

nearly as light as the newest macbook but has more power, better keyboard, ports, etc

the screen is also fine and it has the best battery. 13 inch air is goat
>>
I've always wanted to own a mac of some kind just because I never have, but the cost and the culture keeps me away.

Is there any good resources where I might be able to save a couple hundred?
>>
>>56651774
No. 15 inch or bust.
>>
>>56651175
no, fuck off
>>
>>56658658
The screen was fine but not great when it was released more than four years ago, but it's inexcusable on a high end laptop that is still being sold new.

And I own one, from 2013. Still an amazing laptop but I'd probably get the MacBook today just for the screen.

Thinkpad x220 is better

If it had one more port it would be a great machine. Having to use a dongle so you can charge while using a peripheral is a no-go for me.
>>
>>56660511
What are you plugging into the USB?
>>
>>56660683
My phone (app development), external storage like a hard disk, also a mouse which works perfectly and I'm not interested in replacing.
>>
>>56651175
Is that an actual product? It seems like the screen could be at least 2 inches larger without making the computer bigger.
>>
>>56652749
Nice field dude.
Looks like you're doing really good work here.
Keep working hard, you're the one feeding the mankind, whereas we are useless behind our computers.
