Date: April 22nd, 2018 10:52 PM Author: poppy den french chef My 8 year old MacBook Pro is on the way out. What is the CR current model? Air? MacBook? Pro, with or without touch at? Touchnar seems kind of gimmicky. (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=3956903&forum_id=2#35897439) |

I'm not a tech person; just want browsing/Streaming/word processing with fast performance that doesn't degrade over time. (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=3956903&forum_id=2#35897468) |

Date: April 22nd, 2018 11:06 PM Author: racy senate boltzmann no usb port. had to buy a $70 dongle. no HDMI port to connect to an external monitor. see dongle. apparently connecting a monitor and peripherals through the dongle kills the motherboard. i had to take it in twice already to apple store.
they crammed everything into a smaller body, leading to inferior heat dissipation than the older model. so the fan kicks in every time i try to do something, and often when i'm not doing anything at all. it is very loud.
the keyboard jams easily.
i wish i could trade it for the 2015 macbook pro. |

Date: April 22nd, 2018 11:37 PM Author: black curious brunch weed whacker Agree with all of this. There's also no disc drive, which I find obnoxious. The USB-C ports are by far the worst part though. So many times I go to plug in a printer or something and then I have to find the damn connector.
Also do NOT pop the keys off to clean them. You have to have the whole top case replaced. The keys are not removable anymore. |

Date: April 22nd, 2018 11:48 PM Author: free-loading concupiscible volcanic crater Do any laptops still come with disc drives? It seems very rare now. (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=3956903&forum_id=2#35897836) |
