newer devices are water-resistant, so it seems like high-humidity would be a mark against using an older device...
But it is nice to keep supporting old devices.
Gruber made? Because of the volume of iPhone sales Apple is limited in what they can put in the phone. By selling a Pro model at a price that will lower that volume they can put components in the phone that they couldn't otherwise.
maybe someone else mentioned this, but all the posts I'm seeing is "ha stoopid apple fanbois"
I gotta get some better friends.
Perhaps I'm weird. I've owned quite a few laptops over the past 15 years and I only once ran into insurmountable issues regarding the battery. And, now that I think about it, it wasn't actually the battery that was the issue because I bought a replacement and it still wouldn't charge, so it was something else in the power chain.
I think many other people are like me in that they have a laptop and use it quite often while plugged in. As my laptops age, I just don't count on being able to use them away from a plug for long periods of time. Outside of the one unsuccessful battery replacement I mentioned above, I've never bought a replacement battery.
I can see how it is nice for people who do use their laptops daily, but if the 1000 charge cycles hold up, that's almost 3 years. If you use a computer that much every day, you might consider a new model every once in a while.
I do think I will miss the ability to add RAM (well, not in this computer since I maxed it out when I bought it, but, the idea of being able to upgrade) but again, assuming anyone else uses their computer in a similar way to me, it isn't a huge deal.
I was pretty disappointed I was going to have to get a glossy screen when I got my Retina MBP... I haven't thought about it more than once or twice since it came in the mail.
'Apple was a pioneer of an accounting technique known as the “Double Irish With a Dutch Sandwich,”'
and
"here is a technique typical of what Apple and others pioneered"
and come away with: "Apple literally invented the technique"
It's almost as if people mentioning biased summary writing and biased nytimes articles have a good reason to point out that bias. Heck, the article you linked is linked as the source for the wikipedia article on Double Irish with a Dutch Sandwich to mention Apple (with a nod to "was among the pioneers") in the intro paragraph.

turn your phone off before you get arrested
Coming from Apple where employees are pretty much pampered and living off the constant money flow from the App Store might be a pretty big shock.
um... you mean, hardware sales?
more like keeps himself regular
Instead of "increased by 1000%"
or whatever the correct multiplier is... I'm always off figuring those out.
there's one in my pocket right now
It protects books because you want OSC's "Ender's Game" and not "Fighting Kids in Space"
spoiler alert!

something worth telling users about until they install the fix that came out a couple months ago.

For any model of macbook, you can get something almost twice as powerful for the same price.
That's going off Newegg.
How do you explain that?
Your claim is false.
How do you explain that?
Umm, excuse me? The MacBook Air does include i3 processors.
No they don't
your budget is less than $500?
all your tracks that they have copies of.
*eo's potentially going to jail and so forth.
c*o's ?
Interesting, you read

"companies like..." before "Apple" and maybe a "...and others" after from time to time in the summary?
This!
Seems like no one has ever taken their kids to soccer practice *and* changed the world.
Tell that to Lionel Messi's parents
The software update will "brick their device", by making it incapable of being charged, by the power adapter that worked fine before.
that's not what brick means
