Because fuck you that's why.
>you will never be able to upgrade your shitty 128GB SSD in your rMBP
Fuck you Apple. All you had to do was use a standard M.2 port, but you had to be special again didn't you?
Honestly, fuck this company.

>>59792648
oi vey its its a shame that your premium laptop doesn't have enough storage, looks like you have to take it to a elite specialist to upgrade it, all for a small fee of course

>>59792575
Makes it more difficult or impossible to buy the cheapest configuration and then upgrade it on the cheap.

Can't have that.

>>59792648
they've been kikes since forever, it's your fault for supporting them and buying their products

>>59792683

It's from 2012. I bought it for uni, broke the screen about 6 month later. I took it to the (((genius bar))) and they wanted 900GBP to replace it. It's been sat on my wardrobe ever since gathering dust.

I don't think that's the kind of truck they use in Europe.
Does this mean the USA is next?

>>59792575
Because Apple actually provides support. They are only going to offer support for what's tested and they know works.

>>59792575
if it's property how do PCI adapters exist?
maybe you just have a shitty motherboard?

So this is what having money is like... Huh.

>>59792824

Caller: "Hello? I'm having a--"
Apple Support: "You're holding it wrong."

Apple Support: "Thank you for calling. Drink more Ovaltine. Goodbye."

Yeah, European trucks are 99.9% flat nose.

That's a lot of Good Boy Points, why didn't you take it to some 3rd party repair shop so they could fix it for less?

You're making it sound like this is a new thing. I remember happy meals toys from the 80s using varying combination of "tamper proof" screws.

Aside from that, the penta lobe screws are quite nice, you're less likely to fuck it up than the usual ones.

>>59793471
>Is this how all laptops roll nowadays?
Unfortunately not. You're still looking at premium laptops in the > $1000 price range.
>inb4 macfags insist their $1000 laptops are entry level because it's the cheapest one Apple make
And yes, I've heard that argument IRL.

>>59792698
But the 2012 macbook uses philips head screws?

haha I love this new meme where you post thumbnails instead of proper images

It's not anything new. If you want a "good" laptop that is user serviceable, go with a business laptop. You won't get OS X (unless you want to Hackintosh), so you'll have to live with Windows or Linux or *BSD.

If you want OS X, you will have to live with proprietary parts and screws, unless you want hardware from 2012.

Apple doesn't want third party upgrades since they're a monopoly on hardware for OS X.

Nah, only recently have they gone full jew. My 2008 iMac for example is fully user serviceable. Socket P CPU, MXM GPU, DDR2 SODIMMs, SATA for the 3.5" and 5.25" bays, mPCIe Wi-Fi and Bluetooth card

>>59794031
Love this meme where one merely pretends to be retarded

>>59792575
Be grateful the SSD is at least removable on that MBP.

Touchbar MBPs have SSD soldered onto the motherboard.

>>59792698
At this point you can get a replacement screen on ebay. You can either do that and have an OK laptop or you can sell it. People pay stupid money even for used Apple products.

OP here I've been using an x230 for the past 3 year. I feel so moronic for ever giving apple that much money for a laptop.

>>59797471
>Are you retarded?
He's a troll, so yes.

>>59792575
So you have to pay them to fix it. And when you bring it in they can convince you to just buy a new one. Apple is consumer cancer.

Designs evolve.
New tech arrives on the scene.
Sometimes they are incompatible.
Would you rather that they used last year's tech on your shiny new dingus?
Do your homework; you're supposed to be a /g/tard yet you're floundering around like a normie.

>>59803008

Yes because having the same model number for different laptops is normal practice.

(Why does every other manufacturer have standardised ssd's brainlet?)

Have you ever researched any laptop? Or tech in general? Laptops have multiple suppliers for same laptops since forever. Driver nightmare

I didn't know that. I've never owned a laptop before that didnt use mSATA, m2 or sata, so didn't really think to do that much research. Was only a tenner for the adaptor.

This is why you research your purchases.

And only buy the mid-2012 13" non-retina.

>>59792575
I got a screwdriver set for $5 from harbor freight that had everything necessary to disassemble a macbook pro.

Maybe you're just dumb.

>>59803776

I orered a screwdriver for a pound off ebay that was for the bottom, explain why that's dumb.

>>59802145
why not just solder it? everything else in those POS' is soldered.

This is either a made-up story, or you're too dumb to know what you're doing. Everyone knows Apple's own SSDs are custom as fuck. You're a retard.

>>59792683

When you have no real competition you can do whatever the fuck you want. Look what Nigvidia just did. If a company exists offering a total computer package of laptop plus native custom OS and a working ecosystem of other products with all of which being well established over many, many years, I'll buy it.

Until then Apple will continue to kike, and I will continue to buy.
