    Hello! I want to buy a macbook but I have a question and maybe you can help me.
    Do most powerful laptops last more? For how I am as a user i think that the Air could be engough for me but I want to have it for a long long time, so I don´t know if I should go for the base pro instead because it´s a little bit more powerful and has better refrigeration. What do you think?

    The only thing I worry about Mac is no more upgrading, no more repairs. I can’t and don’t want to buy a new computer when things go downhill. I don’t want to not have to do this.

    Please. Never ever ever put a touch screen on a Mac. Want touch screen? But an iPad. The only way this will even slightly begin to work is if there is ZERO finger print marking. The whole thing is about beaut- finger prints are not beautiful.

    turns out that all my problems on my old Dell is related to the old and half baked version of the initial batches of Intel i9.
    time for dell to drop Intel and make its own cpu
    yeah.. a girl can Dream

    Well, I’ve read that Boot Camp is going away, and that really is bad news for people who want to run Windows 10 on their Macs. Maybe Apple and Microsoft can work together and come up with something similar for these new Macs? I certainly hope so.

    It’s not silicon it’s gallium arsidide.

    Touch screen laptops is overrated if I see it on a MacBook I wouldn’t want, it all it’s gonna do is waste battery life and I’ll forget that it’s touchscreen.

    Couldn’t watch to the end because of that annoying -back- foreground music.

    I must be the only person who thinks a touchscreen MacBook is pointless. Not to mention much more costly.

    Did you notice the changes in Big Sur? They are already changing the spacing of the menu and icon items which make sense in preparation for a touch Mac.

    Nice way to quote a Salt ‘n’ Peppa lyric. How about using the Apple Pencil which has a small point at the end instead of your finger? The finger does require a larger target, but the Pencil does not

    I think it would be nice to see some MacBooks Pros where thinness isn’t as much of a priority, but make it a bit thicker and fill up that space with battery and fans/heat pipes, so the power can be turned up on their new chips. I’ve noticed with the many laptops I’ve had, that sturdiness and rounded edges, make a big difference in portability.

    Edit. And I really hope they’re not touchscreen, at least not the Pros. I guess due to my workflow(coding on the move), accidental touches happen way more than I ever actually used the touchscreens.

    I really cannot see any advantage to any of this for people who want desktops rather than laptops or tablets.

    4:51: That’s not true. When Apple went to intel Macs, the time spent between the last PowerPC Mac and the first release of MacOS X 10.6 Snow Leopard wich don’t support PowerPC at all were 3 and half years instead of 7 like today. So, be aware, Apple don’t disclose the real amount of time they will support old hardware, and if it’s true the Apple Silicon is so fast, Apps will drop Intel code sooner than later.
