I prefer Friendly Apple General. I'm gay like that.
Looking forward to seeing the next generation of Macs. Think they are going to drop the MacBook 12" price? It's pretty overpriced at the moment.
I'm Polish and I own iPhone SE (Rose Gold), Mac Mini and program iOS apps, am I still not wanted here?

They won't drop in price, you either shill out or you miss out.

Serious question: What is so special about a Macbook?
Background: One of my nieces birthday is coming up in about a month. I asked her what she wants and she said "Money, because I am saving up to buy a Macbook". Since I'm where I am financially I immediately considered just buying her one so I did a few quick searches. Every single Macbook for sale appears to have 2-3 year old hardware and a price-tag 2-3 times a good modern laptop with modern hardware.
If that is what she really wants then fine, but I do fear that she will just look at it and try it and think "Why did wish to have this piece of junk" if/when I buy her one.
So.. I am .. honestly seriously wondering what's so special about these outdated computers. Is there something magic to them or is my niece a bit retarded?

>is my niece a bit retarded?
You already know the answer to that question.
>>57077950
macOS / OS X is what's special. Also the support from Apple if anything happens is reassuring and far above any other manufacturer's, especially if you live in a city.

There are two possible answers:
>you look rich, the same ego factor which makes you wear jewelry
>osx

>macOS / OS X is what's special.

Perhaps, but not really. I am and have been a GNU/Linux person for 15+ years. Apple products have never been on my radar, I simply haven't paid attention to them enough to know much one way or the other.

>you look rich, the same ego factor which makes you wear jewelry
That's just stupid, why would anyone want to look rich? Why not do the tactical thing and do everything possible to hide it?

Looks like someone fucked up your logic board swap, or you're snarkily hiding your serial.
