Thank fuck for that. Good ol' USB A. Strong and does the job.

not everything is a struggle between capitalism and communism you fucking mong, they're goddamn operating systems, and most windows users probably just pirate windows anyways so your "muh capitalism" point is moot.

>>60170696

Do I have to spoon feed this to you?

This sets a precedent that the future of the windows platform will require all programs to move onto the windows store.

Additionally this is specifically targeting the next generation. Want to make a program? Better make sure it meets all the requirements of the windows store so they can slap on ads to "your" program.

Furthermore the fragmentation of the windows platform has been a pain in the ass for Microsoft ever since they segmented windows into upteen different tiers. Notice how Winblows 8 didn't offer 20 god damn editions? It seems that with windows 10 they are going backwards all the time.

>>60170677

I'm not sure what you're on about. There are $1000 laptops without this issue and are even MORE portable than MacBooks.

So what makes them great? The shitty support that charges you $300 to replace a battery? The shitty OS that can't merge folders? The style points? The emoji touchbar for normiebook?

What makes Macs better than its competitors in the same price range? Literally nothing.

So enjoy getting your money stolen from you for a toddler toy. Real work gets done on real machines, and Macs aren't real computers.

No one uses GayOS as a UNIX, people use it as Windows. That's my point. You can call it and certify it as you wish, but people who does IT work will use Linux anyway, Linux and FreeBSD are propper UNIX-like systems, not GayOS.

I'll stop call it GayOS after your Apple master stops being a faggot.

>>60174873
>No one uses GayOS as a UNIX
Wrong, that's specifically why some use it.

Would you mind explaining what a "propper" UNIX-like system is and why OS X doesn't count?

Not by default, actually.

Every OS X version since 10.5 on Intel has been UNIX certified. There isn't some UNIX mode you have to enable or anything, they just are UNIX.

Silver and blue look pretty nice desu senpai

Imagine fifty thousand men trapped on a desert island, deprived of food and water and sex but somehow kept alive for fifty thousand years. Then, after they've been tormented a hundred steps beyond insanity, tortured past self-mutilation and cannibalism, somebody drops off a perfectly-cooked steak shaped exactly like a naked woman. If you could then capture the sound of them fucking and tearing her to shreds and broadcast it into the center of your skull at 50,000 watts, it would still sound better than a macfag droning on about how great Apple is.

3:2 anon, like every Surface product.

"Microsoft is using a 13.5-inch PixelSense display with a 3:2 aspect ratio. "This is the thinnest LDC touch model every created and put into a laptop," says Panay, complete with 3.4 million pixels. The screen even supports Microsoft's Surface Pen, so you can draw on the display just like other Surface devices.

"The performance on this device is absolutely amazing," says Panay. Microsoft is using the latest Intel Core i5 and i7 processors, and claims the battery life will last for 14.5 hours as a result. Microsoft claims the Surface Laptop is faster than the i7 MacBook Pro, and it has "more battery life than any MacBook Air on the market today.""

>faster than the i7 MacBook Pro but limited to running shitty windows store apps by default

it's about equivalent worse... I'd say that a tiny fanless tablet with one port is just as bad as a regular i5 laptop with one power, one usb type a and one mini DP. No USB c, no thunderbolt, no buy. What a waste of a perfect laptop opportunity

I just don't get why anyone would want to bump the specs of this thing tho, this will probably go up to $2000 with a 1TB SSD and an i7. A 2 grand laptop with 1 usb-a port.

It's the Chromebook Pixel of 2017.

>>60176774
This laptop is made for every student. Even that one that gets viruses every couple of days. Shipping with the dumbed down version of Windows and letting those that know what they're doing upgrade to Pro is smart.

>>60176803
I suppose if I don't understand the product I'm not the target market as the saying goes.
Seems a bit pricey too.

>>60176827
There will be other laptops running 10 S made by other manufacturers that will be much cheaper. 10 S is made for kids and technologically illiterate people. Anybody else is gonna upgrade to Pro.

>Windows 10 S
It's a $999 laptop that doesn't run Windows applications.

Might be acceptable to run Linux on though.

>>60169271
It's okay to have bad taste.

>>60177263

Good Windows applications are not available from the Windows store. Unless it is compatible with any application compiled for Windows NT, it might as well run Linux.

>>60174303

PC manufacturers and Apple are just ripping off the worst about eachother. Eventually they will converge and every laptop will be gaudy, expensive, and annoying to use.

Every laptop looks like an apple clone now.

Even thinkpads weren't safe from the slaughter.

I honestly would never consider buying this over a macbook pro, I don't see a single appealing argument. It's literally just a copy of a macbook with a fucked up OS on it.

But that's exactly the issue. People should be able to install whatever they want, and being artificially stopped by Microsoft playing the Big Brother role does nothing but hurt that. Why buy a $1000 when you get what is essentially a chromebook until you cough up even more money to get what you used to get for free. It's an utterly pointless, anti-consumer idea and the fact that people are defending this is sad.
