>Apple is still charging full price for retina MBPs with 3 year old hardware
What the fuck, Apple? I'm in the market for a new laptop and was trying to find a viable alternative to Windows 10 and thought this would be a good opportunity to make the switch. Haswell came out mid 2013 for fuck's sake, yet I can get a laptop with a skylake CPU and current gen GPU for the same price as a 15 inch rMBP if not cheaper.
Explain this shit, /g/. When is apple going to get off their ass and update their hardware? I need to buy something before February of next year at the latest.

October.
They won't and will never listen to reasonable people like you because morons by the millions eat their shit before its even entirely out of their asshole.
Want to swap from Windows? 'Build' your own laptop (there are websites that let you customizer them a fair bit) and install Linux.
Good luck finding a distro though. Or make a hackintosh I'd you want the apple cool aid so much.

Linux fucking sucks. I'm on FreeBSD, it works so much better, it's like OS X without the rape.

Any confirmation? All I see are rumors.

Just get a Surfacebook or a three year old MBP

>Surfacebook
Windows 10 can go fuck itself. If I end up going with a non-Apple laptop I'm installing Windows 7 on it.

Whatever works m8

Can't you do this with a Surfacebook?
Or at least throw BSD on it?

That's because there will be no new Macbook Pro.
These sad chaps have been waiting since 2013

top kek
i can't help but find this tablet phase ridiculous
people buy tablets, then buy accessories such as a kickstand and attachable keyboard, because surprise surprise, you need basic functionality like that which is found in a laptop
why not just buy a laptop?
