If the TouchBar is the way forward and getting rid of function keys, in Apple’s mind, why offer a version of the MacBook Pro without the TouchBar and with function keys?
windrider
19:11:17
Apple has reduced the price of RAM upgrades.
tioaboa
19:11:22
agreed and limited to 16GB
IanUK
19:11:24
Does @docrock support Man U by any chance? 😂
DeepPan

Is this latest MacBook Pro just Apple going into a “holding pattern”, getting ready to switch desktops & laptops away from Intel and onto there own A Chips?
IanUK
19:13:36
Touch Bar is cool tech, but why put a 2x larger trackpad in? Ergonomics are all wrong as @ewen has already stated

DeepPan

I think the FAA have a milliamp/hour limit on batteries it’ll allow on any flight, which is starting to hit on what can go into a laptop. You could put faster CPU and GPU, more memory, but with the battery limit you could only run it for a couple of hours on battery only

Serenak
19:51:33
any extra the UK pays in exchange rates is not what I am talking about
patrice
19:51:37
@Serenak I know. ANd that’s because the pound is weaker now. Apple just waited a while

This week, Apple Pro users have seriously looked at Microsoft offerings
Serenak

batwench

DeepPan: isn’t against the US consitution to have just a 2 party system?

it reminds me so much of the Cintiq
DeepPan
21:14:45
I think the 27inch Cintiq are about the same price as the Surface Studio
Serenak
21:15:16
yeah but hte Cintiq needs a computer to go with it
batwench
21:15:19
Looks like CAD would be fun on it
Serenak
21:15:58
it’s not being pitched as a consumer device as far as I can see
mrbatwench
21:16:19
£1874 on Amazon for the 27 inch Cintiq
Serenak
21:16:54
ok so that plus a passable iMac and possibly in the same bracket as the Studio
Serenak
21:17:20
but Apple patented a fold down iMac and didn’t do it
DeepPan

Studio is nice, but is not meant as a mainstream PC

Studio very much targeted at a specific set of niche audiences artists, designers, architects etc. Not for the general audience.
DeepPan

Microsoft is getting their swagger back, which is great, some proper competition

Definitely aspirational high end device, will have halo affect but Studio itself focussed on specific uses.
