(View all)Remember: Apple will continue to get further and further behind as the company is being harvested by Wall Street for short term profits and stock price.

"Pro" laptops need:
- A battery that last more than 3 hour when doing actual work.
- Magsafe for obvious reasons.
- An option for Nvidia GPUs since some of use use CUDA for our jobs.
- Traditional USB and HDMI ports, or include the damn dongles for free.
For some reason Tim changed the meaning of "Pro" from "work horse" to "fashion".
