It is the logical conclusion to personal computing for people with delicate wrists.

If by personal computing you mean backyard grilling then yes

The Airs are dogshit. Anything older than the last two Pros are dogshit. The keyboards on the Airs are dogshit. You're dogshit.

wait for the update
inside rumor is that the macbook air line will be forked, and the current air is to be canceled

Before I post "no", walk me through your reasoning.

it's the most well rounded mac with the most reasonable price and features. we don't need more unless you use it for gaming.

I use a MacBook Air daily and I love it. It could be improved with a better screen (Retina resolution, wide-gamut color), smaller bezels, possibly a few better ports (e.g. replace Mini DisplayPort with USB Type-C with Thunderbolt 3, upgrade USB 2.0 ports to USB 3.0), webcam can be improved but it's not that important, also upgrade the processor to 4-core 8th gen Intel (or even AMD Ryzen-based mobile APU although this is unlikely), faster RAM/SSD. Don't change the keyboard or the touchpad.

lois rossman a guy who fixes these things daily says they are pieces of shit so what do you think?

but then it would be more expensive.

I guess so. I'm mainly thinking about my needs. I don't like the direction of the MacBook Pro (shitty keyboard with low key travel, useless touchbar, force touchpad sucks, missing useful ports). I use my MacBook Air for development, not browsing Facebook, so a lot of these changes to the MacBook Pro are deal breakers for me (especially the keyboard, touchbar, and touchpad). Otherwise I would consider the 13" MacBook Pro as a future replacement.

>lois rossman a guy who claims to fix these things daily says they are pieces of shit so what do you think?
I think Lois is a strange name for a guy.
But I've never heard of him except in an anonymous post on Sup Forums.

And you are?

Linus Torvalds who makes Lois Rossman his bitch swears by them. So what do you think?

the keyboard is so good

Nope. You are describing the regular Macbook. Not the Pro or the Air, just regular Macbook. Well-rounded with the most bang for your buck.

yet whenever he reviews another notebook, he admits it's an even bigger piece of shit

some people just know too much about how sausages are made

you mean the 12 inch? i like that one as well but i don't think i would pay that much for nice screen and force touch right now. maybe sometime in the future when i'm richer.

If by personal computing you mean LGBT movement then yes

>PC
>small screen
>shitty screen colours, contrast and angles
>shitty keyboard
>fixed keyboard-screen distance

thasrite

>own a MacBook air
>watch a YouTube video in 720p
>heats up like a panini maker

yes i got a good deal on a 256gb 2011 mac air a few years ago and wiped it and been running debian with a win 7 VM.... Perfection

Nothing can compete. I want for nothing else (except for a new battery as min is fuxored) also own othe lattitudes and servers but it is the best. Why ? I can cycle around with it and not know its there.

...

I own a 2012 macbook air and a thinkpad x230. Ignoring OS differences, there is nothing better about the Air except for lightness and screen resolution. The x230 isn't large or heavy enough to make it insanely cumbersome compared to the air, and it has far too many hardware advantages.

So no OP.

but mr torvalds uses this.

at least i can cary it around without breaking my my back unlike your memepad lead weights.

big difference between a desktop replacement and an ultrabook.

also new copy pasta. not dints in that one... umad bro ?

I'm really digging the Dell XPS 15 9560 I just recently bought. VT-x and VT-d (for when I setup dual-booting w/ Debian), 1TB SSD, 4k touchscreen, 4GB NVidia card, the whole shebang. What sucks is the price tag (with the three-year warranty + support). Took $3400 right out of my wallet.

but OS differences is HUGE differences. i'm talking about a company that makes both the hardware and the software.

The Airs are constantly the best selling apple computers, and i think Apple realises their necessity. But i also think a brand "reshuffle" can happen.

The current MacBooks becomes the "Air" maybe with a larger screen option. And the MacBook goes back to being Apple's entry level machine. Honestly i can see them reusing the old school 2010 MacBook chassis or a variation of it. Making it a little more chunky deliberately validates the portability of the "higher end" Nu-Air and Pro.

Optimally they'd throw in a Ryzen chip too.

2015 Macbook pro ftw.

A lot of OS differences are subjective. it's a lot harder to argue "macihne x is the LOGICAL CONCLUSION TO PERSONAL COMPUTING" because of software rather than hardware.

Sooooooooooooo..... you are saying if apple stop selling the crapbook fart people will start buying PROPER computers?

I would love an Air.

But fuck paying that price.

>reminder 2011 refurbished Airs are $400+
>fuckingretarded.mp4

then try to come up with a better alternative fuckwit

I'd rather just virtualize the whole experience.

MacBook Air has been obsolete since the 13” rMBP, you know, the one that was released in 2012.

The Apple value meme is kinda crazy.

It's a mac, it's only logical if you enjoy dicks in your orifices.

>720p

>missing the eyecandy

>eyecandy
What eyecandy are you speaking of? Looks like just like it would on actual hardware.

nope it looks much prettier on actual hardware

>macshit hardware

The XPS 13 is the logical conclusion to high performance personal computing when you don't need GPU power. The step up from that is either an XPS 15 with a GTX 1050 built in, or using your XPS 13 with an external GPU via Thunderbolt 3.

Ah, you mean the aluminum that helps keep the hardware warm so it throttles sooner. No thanks, my hardware looks better.

no i meant hackintosh

macos is total fucking trash. get a real os instead of that gay fruit shit.

>TN panel
Just get 13 inch Macbook Pro, bro.

>macshit
Just a real laptop instead of that faggot fruit shit.

Quality of non-Apple panels makes my eye bleed, user.
I need something good to watch my gay furry porn on.

>gloss shit
>good
Just gouge your eyes out you cocksmoker.

>The M key is an upside W key.

lmao

The glossy layer is the most important.
Matte layers completely fuck up both colour and clarity of the image.

It's just that non-Apple displays are too dim to work without matte layer.

Enjoy lugging around some hefty thinkpad you only got because Sup Forums thinks they're cool. I'll be here with my air which is light as a feather and works great for any programming tasks aside from shit you shouldn't be doing on a personal computer anyway.

got'em

Enjoy lugging around a literal "I TAKE COCKS UP MY ASS" badge you only got because fruit faggot soyboy hipsters think they're cool. I'll be here with my XPS which is light as a feather and works great for any programming tasks aside from shit you shouldn't be doing on a personal computer anyway.

desu most XPS laptops are capable of doing a lot of stuff you "shouldn't be doing on a personal computer".

No. That fragile piece of overpriced shit is for faggots, numales women to do art and pose in corporate coffee shops and similar cancer.
It has nothing to do with personal and it is a joke in terms of computing. Bad unfunny joke.

Yes.
T. found an empty MBA box in a trashcan and now uses it for shitpost images and pretending to be a macfag

>gay this gay that
>computer hobbyists score the highest in terms of the amounts of virgins

you sit there all day, what makes you more masculine than the actual masculine people who go out and don't think about their computers and just want simple computers that just works? real masculine people have no time to sit around making their thighs fat.

or for people who have real career and don't have time to think about computer and coding. coding is for virgins, no matter how straight you are, you are a virgin, you're inferior to gays.

>laptop is too heavy
Easy on the soylent

For bed shitposting. Sure, best pick.
But that's about it.

How did you manage to pay so much? You can get the same setup direct from dell for about $2100 right now

some of us do go out with our computers to do jobs so that we can feed our family, virgin.

>womanly insult
Toss that bottle right now.

>insult
you're running out of your jerkoff lube, virgin.

>continues to use girl insults
I guess it's too late.

>i use linux it means i have more strength and testosterone than you!

No but I can carry a laptop around that's heavier than a macbook.

It's the logical conclusion to picking up twinks at starbucks.
