Awesome. Enjoy it. The Retina MBPs are really nice. I have a 15" but when my sister was here with her 13" I was kind of jealous of the smaller form. I made my decision in 2013 based on processor and GPU, but dang, if they offered a beefed up 13", even if only at the high end, I'd love it. (Though I'd initially miss the ability to do 1200p x 2 since the 13" only goes up to 1050p x 2.)
This screen is amazing, the quality is really something. This is my first Macbook and so far i'm loving it. The force touch trackpad is also amazing.
I love having this nice roomy screen, but I really do kind of long for my 13" days. If only Apple would stop putting the good stuff only in the large model. They should have each size have a low end and high end version. Instead they make the smaller version be low end and bigger one be high end.
I really needed a new laptop as I got this one from a friend for less than 1000 so it was a good deal (only 3 months of use).
Yeah. I look forward to when I actually decide to upgrade so I can do my research. I just want a 13" that isn't gimped though. Give me that higher end processor at least. And dGPU option if it still even exists.
Yeah, let's hope the price doesn't increase. At least not by much if at all. Dongles would also be a bit annoying, but to be honest I wouldn't be that affected by them. As long as I can charge my computer and also have my iPhone plugged in at the same time. (I'd just keep the USB3 to USB-C dongle on the iPhone cable at all times, or wait for a cheap third party USB-C/Lightning cable that will inevitably come alone at some point. I mean if Apple is really pushing to kill off the old USB connector, eventually iPhones will start coming with one.)
Yeah. It'd be a tough decision to leave the 1920x1200 HiDPI setting behind. I'd definitely miss it. The 13" models only go up to 1680x1050 HiDPI as the highest Retina option available.
Awesome, thanks. I'm still with my 2011 MBP, so I'm definitely looking forward to upgrading.
Are you on Sierra? Because 4 and 5 won't work anyway.
What does Snapz Pro do that might make it better than Screenflow? Out of curiosity.
QuickRes can do this and offer a lot more options as well. Remember, native will make things way to small to use the computer comfortably though. Unless you have amazing Superman vision. At that resolution, 1:1 won't be of much use if you can't see it. lol
I don't agree with this. It did get progressively bad, with iOS 8 probably being the buggiest mess I've ever used from Apple.
I can't agree more with this though. But out of the two I hate, I'm gonna go with the "We are constantly improving our app on a regular basis" release notes. Those aren't release notes. I'm not gonna update your app as regularly when I can't see what's changed.
Nah, there wasn't internet recovery at that point, and system restore discs were pretty hardware-specific. They originally shipped with 10.4 so any 10.5 disc will do. Looks like you can find the discs for $20 or so on eBay but it might be worth seeing if there's some corner of the internet you can burn a bootable DVD from given that that's $20 of obsolete software
