Admit it: You’d buy a MacBook Pro if you could afford it.
>>
>>62399074
I do indeed have the money to buy one but I have not bought one for the following reasons :
>no trackpoint
>no physical trackpad buttons
>will break into 80 pieces if I drop it from 2 feet
>so normie it doesn't have a delete key
I bought a ThinkPad P50 instead
>>
>>62399074
I could buy that or a new graphics card and CPU
Sorry macbook
>>
>>62399181
Poorfag Pajeet pls go.
>>
2016 touchbar version here.
Best computer I've ever owned.
>>
>>62399074
How much does it usually cost again? My PC costs 3.5 grands, that without the monitor, and other peripherals
>>
No, because I spend my money on other things. And then have so the extra as savings for whatever reason. I don't like overpriced Facebook machines. Also, we had this thread yesterday. Kindly stop shilling your product
>>
Yeah probably
but not the touch bar version
just the normal version

t. poorfag using a 2014 macbook air
i love it but goddamn if i cant do much on it

No. I would buy a 12" Macbook

I owned one

Sold it for an alienware

I absolutely hate shallow keyboards with a passion.
If apple did one with full travel keys i would consider it, yes.
>>
>>62399640
>ASUS UX305FA
>>
>>62399074
Yes I would. But of course it wouldn't be my primary computing device.

Like my ipad. I use my ipad exclusively to read ebooks.
>>
>>62399074
I bought one. Was ok. Sold it bought a dell inspiron 7000. Half the price better performance.

>>62399074
nope. i've used windows all my life, why would i want to change now?
>>
>>62400540
Because Macbooks simply just works.
>>
>>62399074
It's terrible for gaming because it has shitty AMD graphics. I'd rather buy a Windows laptop with an Nvidia GPU.
>>
How many rupees do your Apple overlords pay you to repost this thread iPajeet?
>>
>>62399074
Not really

The best thing about MacBooks are their OS, which i can get on (almost) any other laptop.
So i'll pass.
Also, Dell Latitude + Hackintosh master race

So does windows.
Been quite a while i use this machine, and i pretty much never ran into any sort of serious trouble, other than having to replace the PSU once.

>>62399074
The new ones thermal throttle way too much, I guess that what you get for a thin fetish altho all notebooks in this form factor thermal throttle with such specs or go full blown on fan speed, but I don't want to pay that much to have same shitty issue.
>>
>>62400694
>Using an OS that you still have to use any kind of anti-malware/virus
I don't need to use any active stuff as i got decent common sense (and virus total), also your mac is starting to need it as well, even if it's an integrated apple solution
>Using an OS that necessitates defragging ever
Windows 7 by default auto defrag when the computer is idle, and due that i never actually needed do defrag the machine
>An OS with that god damn registry that fucks itself with DLL's missing for no fucking reason
Never happened since 2007.
>>
>>62399074
i can afford it and no
>>
>>62399523
there's no reason for you not to buy one then
>>
>>62401206
There's no reason for you not to buy an Atari Jaguar.
>>
>>62399944
Neat
Its 700 dollars cheaper AND has more storage and power.

Buying a MacBook,you need dongles to be productive which is retarded
>>
>>62399074
I'd buy from System76 if I could afford it
>>
>>62399074
Without CUDA it's useless. If I had more money on a laptop, I'd buy ASUS ZenBook UX430UQ.

>>62399074
I like desktop and games more.
>>
>>62399074
>dogshit CPU and GPU
>literally no games on OSX

No, I'd buy a non-alienware gaming laptop if I could afford it (like GTX 1070-tier), but I would absolutely not buy this throttling piece of shit.

MB Pros were great productivity laptops prior just 3-4 years ago, what the fuck happened?
>>
>>62399074
I'd buy an air instead
>>
i bought an inspirion 7559 for half the price and can do everything i could on a macbook, and probably more. i don't need the status symbol of a half eaten fruit.
>>
>>62399074
idk you would ever use anything that runs off of apple's OS. just buy a tower, modify it to your liking, and if your smart enough you'll use anything but that trash.
>>
Is there a pc similar to the macbook air that has a trackpad just as good? Most pc laptop trackpads ive used are trash
>>
>loud keyboard
>lags when projector connected
>low quality build that can break in few years
As poorfag in country with low income, all Apple products are way outside an acceptable price range. If I could afford laptop with such price, I wouldn't buy macbook, especially after hearing how their hw become unreliable and sw went to trash. Probably lenovo memepad x series.
>>
I bought a 2017 no touchbar mbp

its dope af
>>
>>62399074
I can afford it but the new macbooks are shit and not worth the price
>>
>>62399460
What's it like having no window snapping? You have to drag the windows and resize them and hope you get it right to the edges of your screen.
>>
Yes I would. I'd never buy an Iphone though
>>
>>62405152
I have window snapping. It comes with better touch tool and takes literally 30 seconds to install and be up and running forever.
>>
>>62399074
nah.
>>
>>62399074
No, I wouldn't. The trackpads are no longer clickpads, the keyboards on newer models are ass, I'd have to pay out the ass for a decent amount of RAM, the SSDs are proprietary, and they don't have docks.
>>
>>62405152
I'm using a 2008 iMac and have window snapping.
>>
>>62399074
nope, instead high end desktop components or an actually powerful laptop
>>
>>62399074
I would actually buy an xps 13 or thinkpad for university.

You're right, it's not what you said. It's what I said, you fucking dumbass.
>>
>>62406235
Then why are you responding to my post with something completely unrelated?
>>
>>62402693
>needing to use delete/backspace ever
>>
>>62406289
Because your post was equally unrelated.
>>
>>62406365
Unrelated to what? What are you even talking about?

I'd buy a Bonobo WS maxed out. Shit's over 10 grand and its one of the best laptops on the market.

Not an argument.

Not an argument.

>>62399460
are the corners rounded when the window is maximized? that looks like shit
>>
>>62406492
You didn't present any argument. I asked you what my post was unrelated to, you typed out a version of our conversation where I type in stutter and caps lock. I'm not ignoring an argument, you just didn't present one.
>>
>>62406522
I may have not presented an argument but that's because you did it first, twat.
>>
>>62405872
This really makes me think about why wealthy people use it. They must be great open-minded people. One reason I won't use apple products is not wanting to associate with showing off poorfags.
>>
>>62406550
>I may have not presented an argument but that's because you did it first
Did what first? Is English your first language? You don't use the verb "do" in negative actions, you illiterate moron.

And I did present an argument: we had this thread less than 2 days ago. Just because you can't present a counter-point any better than "LOL BUT Y-Y-YOU TYPE LIEK D-DIS" doesn't mean it's not an argument.
>>
Admit it: you would have been banned already if this god forsake place had mods.
>>
>>62406597
Did what first?
Not presented an argument.
>Is English your first language?
Certainly.
>>
>>62406680
But I did. You're just upset because you can't counter it after 7 posts.
>>
>>62406716
I didn't say you never presented an argument, I said you were the first to not present one.

It's a blatant macbook pro clone but with a matte screen and trackpoint.

Even used 2010/2011 MBP cost around 500-600$ where I live.
>>
I have the 2014 one. I admit it's a good little computer. Apple went to fucking shit after 2015 though.
>>
>>62399074
Would buy something superior for the same money, dummy.
>>
>no DVD/blurry drive
Into the trash it goes.
>>
>>62399074
If I needed a laptop, it would be for doing photography jobs with a family friend and we use Express Darkroom, which doesn't run on Apple, so, no.
>>
>>62399074
I had a impulse to buy the macbook air, but it faded away

i used one of them because of work, but nope. Would never buy one of these things for private usage

no because i hate companies that try to make everything different, even the fucking keyboards which are neither iso nor ansi standard.

>>62399074
>Admit it: You’d buy a MacBook Pro if you could afford it.
No. I'd just build another Hackitosh if I needed Apple in my daily life for anything. No reason for most people to even own a $3000 facebook machine.....

>>62407779
hello, mr stallman. could you give me any recommendations on open source laptops?
