>not buying chinese until we make laptops great again

my 15 yo brother

To be honest 2 tb ssd is fucking expensive

Holy fuck 5k+ for that?
You can get a way better desktop for 2k.

Rich latte sipping liberals.
The type of snarky faggots that lecture others on white privilege.

It's a decent computer with really good hardware and great design. Sure, it's way overpriced, but if you're not a poorfag that's not really that important. Mainly it's a status symbol.

t. CS PhD

that is one year of salary here

People who are clueless about computers and just want to use Facebook on a fancy machine.
MBP 15 (2015) was perhaps the best laptop around because of the battery life, portability (OSX still sucks) and build quality.
This laptop is a joke, it's way too expensive.

Oh yes, give your finger prints to the jews! OY VEY WE GOT THE GOYIMS PRINTS

People who hate capitalism

>2k
Lol

>really good hardware
>Radeon 460
>Smallish battery
>Throttles way more than before
>No connections without a dongle

Yeah, sure.

i see alot of people using mac for music related shit

>those specs

I wouldn't buy it for even one tenth of the price.

This should really only cost maybe 500-1500, why is it 5200?

dude you can get a goddamn monster with 2k

a shitty $700 desktop is faster than this

>"Come work for us and we'll buy you a $5000 MacBook Pro"
>"OK!"
Businesses mostly. You'd have to be a fool to buy this for what they're actually charging for it.

People that want the most stable, reliable, and user friendly distro of unix available at the current time.

>I kind of wanna buy it right now, but that's the lizard dna in me

2012 macbook pro still the best.

The new Macs are dog shit. 2015 Macs were overpriced as fuck but they worked at least

Good re-sale value kinda makes it a good buy.

The laptops are the only decent product apple has.

I have one, and it's probably the most useful trouble free thing in my possession, and i've had it for 4 years now, its saved my life multiple times.

Fuggg

ITT: poor neckbeards and gaymer faggots sperg their cheeto dust over rich people buying veblen goods

>Get used Thinkpad T450s for $600

Probably the best computer I have ever owned.

This, but he's now 19. He used to be so cocky about his super special 147 iq, but now that we're competing on even ground I stomp him by every measure, so he turned a vegan and berates me for whatever moral loophole he can think of instead. I'm bitter. Fuck apple.

>I spent $4000 more than you for the same product, suck it

Someone who is not a poorfag
Get rekt plebs

best goy right here

Did they ever fix the problem where wi-fi would get disabled if you plugged any USB device into the computer?

>I don't understand basic economics or the concept of conspicuous consumption
gaymer faggot detected

maybe when you get a real job you'll understand

Do you have to use the fingerprint scanner to use this?

At least malnutrition will kill him soon so there's that...

>Mac fags
>jobs

Kek tell me more about your job of designing interior carpets and writing poetry

>I don't understand basic economics
>Buys a 5k laptop because of the logo when he could buy the same spec laptop for 700
I could construct you a fucking space ship with 5k.

You know that 95% of devs in silicon valley use Linux or Mac OS X, right?

>he thinks 5k is a lot of money
Poorfag detected!

Total dumbfucks. 2011-12 Macbooks were awesome value. Get one on ebay for like $300-400.

Apple has always been faggy and elitist to some degree, but especially these days.

Next year, they will invent the idea of a screen-less phone. For an extra $99, you can get a bluetooth screen, to use your phone from across the room. Comes with scarf and skinny jeans.

Fucking Alienware is better than MacBook

>Liberal hipster startups that outsource their code to India use faggy Macs to update their twitters about their new indie game

I am so surprised and utterly shocked

only mental pleb.
>TFW custom PC masterrace

It's mostly Linux; iOS is a piece of shit Unix-based propietary OS that was only good before Windows was properly updated from that QDOS shit. It's overpriced as fuck and a symbol of the worst kind of mindless consumism.

Checked and keked

I have a $3500 mac desktop with retina screen and all kinds of added graphics chips and a quad processor. I use it for video editing. I have never had a virus. I see no ads. I have an iphone. But I simultaneously hate iphone people and see why mac is hated cause they turned the pc into a vending machine.

Does this mean I'm a faggot?

>2tb SSD
>2133MHz RAM

you what

No it's a quicker way to sign in instead of entering your password. Shady as shit though

Jazz off you bundle of sticks. As a neckbeard to another - I can smell you.

Are Canadian dollars really that worthless?

How would you know, you can't afford either poo nigger.

Have an iphone 6

its decent for what it is but even I have to agree that their desktops and laptops are complete and utter shit.

>american company
>grey

the fuck. they think they're being sophisticated with that spelling? fucking losers

pretty disgusting

I was in a really nice house the other day with nice carpet, furniture, desks etc. and then a shitty tiny macbook on a big desk

what a waste

retards

The same people who buy Yeezys.

fucking this

Certain apple products are really good. OSX is a solid OS (UNIX/BSD). For things like video/audio/graphics... they are awesome. Even better if you are not the one paying for the equipment. And for developers, they can be decent.

So no, you are not faggy, but if you are the average person, you are faggy if you use one.

Gamers know PC is the only way. Linux main problem, is all the UI options are fucking shit.

a mistake.

Doesn't look like it to me:

>MFW no less than three government agencies
have my fingerprint because I worked in a port, worked in a casino, and got a CCL
At this point I think it hardly matters. In any case, that's probably the least significant reason to not buy appleshit.

I did. 2015. Wouldn't buy the new ones.

>1 USB port
>degraded charge port

Fuck apple. If you buy one, buy older mackbooks- one that can still be modified.

Didn't know mine could be modified when I bought it- apple is pretty much going ultra Jew. I like the laptop, it's fast and reliable, but it's fucking expensive, not home serviceable, not modible. They have shit connected to the motherboard, shit that you will need to replace in six or seven years, that will need to be replaced by fucking apple. Or someone skilled enough to work on motherboards. Which I sure as hell am not- is pay $800 for someone to do it for me, no problem, but it pisses me off that I might need to do that for something that could have been easily fixed by a no-skill retard like me if it weren't for apple kikery

Anyways, fuck apple, fuck hp, fuck dell. Pretty much fuck every computer I've had so far. And fuck the windows operating system no matter what it runs on.

I agree that Mac laptops are pretty good hardware, but OSX is a terrible OS. IO performance, threading, memory management, etc. sucks compared to Linux.

I like it more than Windows just because it's Unix, but it's performance sucks and is in some ways worse than windows.

>not russian_government_hacking_station.png

You think a PhD in CS makes you believable when your lying?

>he thinks all software is muh vidya games
Neckbeards are truly delusional lmfao.

I did last year for work, needed a mac for dem app developments
well my company paid for it
it wasn't the most expensive model, but 2.3k euros for a computer is damn expensive
at least it has a nice screen and touchpad

>sub 3 ghz for over 5k
What the fuck no one is this retarded

I would agree that performance now sucks. They should have stopped at "Snow Leopard". That release was solid.

Also what I hate about Apple ( and most tech shit ) is upgrading for the sake of upgrading. New features nobody wants. Don't know when to stop and leave something good, the fuck alone.

It's a gimmick though, why would you need/want that much on a laptop? It's more likely to fail, more expensive, and you don't need it. It's literally my dick is bigger than your dick.

Bought a used one for 1100 off Craigslist

Shits pretty cash

You should get a FSF™ certified laptop.

Snow Leopard performance sucked compared to Linux too. You have a bad case of nostalgia goggles.

In terms of performance I think every subsequent OSX release has been an improvement. Obviously not even close to enough to close the gap.

It's not like you could afford it anyway

"bad case of nostalgia goggles. "

Could be. Not ruling that out.

My boss has everything from Apple, including a laptop like from OPs post.

When i asked him why he bought it he said:

>Because its fast, i need a fast laptop for work
>But you could get an even faster laptop for less $
>No, not that fast. I need SUPER FAST. Only Apple has SUPER FAST laptops.


My boss works in insurance. He's basicaly sending/reading e-mails all day.

Sometimes i really think the world is filled with morons.

...

Liberal women and nu-males

95% of people are retarded

Are you me, but polish?

Is your boss obsessed with app integration?

The world is filled with morons and people with easy jobs doing jack shit get paid the most because of who they know....

That is my perspective as an autist.

why to people freak out about the government having their prints? what can the government even do with your prints? as far as im concerned collecting my prints from a location is just icing on the cake type evidence.

>CS
Can we get some /sci/ anons here

fpbp

I use to have one back in '09. It was a work subsidiary. I don't think I'd buy one myself.

my brother is a PhD student in biochemistry

he had to buy a Mac to run the proprietary software his lab uses, because everyone else uses Macs
