So what? Given the way Apple are going, upgrades are becoming either extremely hard or impossible to do. All Macs should have an SSD in 2017. Apple has enough courage to dump USB-A ports but is still clinging to mechanical HDDs as if their profits depended on it. No more HDDs, no more fusion drives either. There's so little flash in the latest versions as to be useless.
From what I've read in most hackintosh threads, if you stick with an Intel CPU the problems are usually related to wi-fi, bluetooth and audio. If using an AMD or nVidia GPU, sticking with something already used by Apple is usually enough.
The current version is woefully outdated though, and continues to use Haswell processors and integrated Intel HD 5000/Intel Iris Graphics.
And still uses a 5400 RPM HDD. You Windows and Linux users have no idea how slow macOS is on anything but SSDs.
The whole macOS development team should be forced to use the low-end model of the least powerful Mac. Then either macOS would run fine on it (and fly on anything else) or they'd be able to put enough pressure internally at Apple to upgrade the damn thing to SSD.
Apple should be split in three internally: - Macs + macOS - iPhone/iPad/iWatch + iOS - AirPorts, Time Capsule, etc
And don't leave the industrial designers in charge of GUIs. They seem to lack the necessary knowledge.
And like it or not, bring back Scott Forstall. Watch his parts of keynotes again. He's one of the few who seemed to understand how things should work. He should be the one in charge of Macs and macOS.
And Mr. Cook... your job is to lead Apple. That means all things Apple, not just the damn iPhone and iPad. Some of us have actual work to do (i.e. programmers, the people who are essential to your whole company from A to Z) and for us iOS devices are toys not fit for work.
The EIA regularly underestimates the growth in renewables but overestimates U.S. fossil-fuel consumption, which some critics see as an attempt to boost the oil and gas industry.
Maybe the EIA sells pro-pane and pro-pane accessories.
I'm taking a page from Star Trek and its gold pressed latinum. I'm having my Bitcoins converted to gold-wrapped chocolate. Still a Bitcoin in QR code form, gold value from the wrapper, food value from the chocolate.
And at 16 grams per CD, your collection weights 512 kilograms, or over half a metric ton without the slim jewel cases.
With the slim jewel cases, with a weight of around 43 grams each, your collection weights a total of 1.888 metric ton.
The E.P.A.'s weight statistics show that the average weight of a 2003 car or light-duty truck, like a pickup, sport utility, van or minivan, was heavier than in any model year since 1976, when the average peaked at 4,079 pounds (1850 kg).
Congratulations on your CD collection being heavier than a small pickup truck.
BOSE may not have the best-sounding headphones on the market, but they do have the best noise-cancelling technology. Of course, earplugs are still better.
Any of these are pointless anyway as I'm pretty sure it's illegal to use them while driving.

I think the worst part of the internet is that any moron can post his opinion online.

Was the EIA supposed to predict the future and all the advances in solar panel technologies that were going to happen in the last decade?

As long as it can use a minimum of 20 litres per kg/h it'll be fine.
Not only do other companies keep releasing new models and upgrades to these models, but they do so every year or so.
Intel releases new CPUs? UPGRADE YOUR COMPUTERS. It's as easy as that.

Where exactly are his coins worth USD$45? Because it's not even listed on coingecko.com, for example.
Would he accept payments in Flappycoins? Because I got a shitload of those...
Well, the Internet is sort of like millions of TVs and -
What are TVs?
Well a TV is something that displays moving images and -
Moving images? Images don't move, ya idiot! You get a painting and you hang it on the wall!
Etc.
It's worthless now, but when the zombies apocalypse starts, Evancoin's value is gonna go to the moon!
Not for most of us.
Agreed-upon value, eh? Then how come the amount of agreed-upon value I have keeps losing purchasing power every year?
And by "manual labor" you mean handjobs, right?
(insert joke about "won't somebody think of the children" here)
I don't have the zlorbies'ed idea.
You seem like an ideal candidate to buy Dogecoins.
Make that pre-forks surges. There's Bitcoin gold and also SegWit2x.

Giggity.
Sony is crap.

I'm pretty sure unibody construction is patented by Apple. At least that's the impression I got when I watched the brainwas- I mean keynotes.
