My rMBP battery went kaput after less than two years. I just want a second battery.
Running OSx on a non mac is a hobby all in itself. That's not really what I'm looking for.
The way I use my Mac now, my dock is my thunderbolt display. Not sure what I'd need to bring to meetings. Even for projecting we just use Miracast at this point.
I have used Apple computers since 1988 and followed their path. A Mac now boils down to a development box and some ease of use and hardware robustness. Since I do not see the point of getting a brand new one, I recycle every five year-old machine I stumble onto and I am good to go.
Keep it up and it will be
Surface studios are even more expensive than the iMac. And are also somewhat underpowered.
What?
They glue the batteries into the machines now and they're honestly not built to last more than five years.
There's terminals that run on other things...
Only one of those isn't improved upon with an iPhone, and that's better off over Bluetooth.
What do you mean – insists that you use every program?
Also any program forces you to use it exactly the way it was designed, the distinction is usually that Apple software has less options programmed in than Linux or Windows software.
And by overengineered – which parts would you like to be less engineered?
I'd be buying a dock anyway. No laptop is going to have all the ports I need, so there's no reason to try.
I think that's our the configuration with the 2tB ssd
If an imac is enough for the creatives, a surface studio will be better
Ah, see I couldn't care less about the touch screen. Same for the touch bar on the new Mac.
My biggest problem with the new Mac is the keyboard. I fucking hate low key travel, and I think the Surface Book has the same problem, just with worse specs.
If it pushes them to Ubuntu I have no doubt that they'll come crawling back.

Tried it out? I have, guess what happens when you start accessing files on the Windows drive
It will corrupt files if you access the Windows drive. For example, I used vim to edit my Windows host file and now the file is corrupted.
I wonder how useful a touchbar is gonna be if someone tries to run another OS on their new mbp
It's always looked like shit too
But that doesn't help the people in the article. They are leaving MacOS because the hardware is disappointing not the OS.

Nope, but if looks matter more then specs you can still use a macbook with Linux.
The title is kinda weird. Its like saying the latest ford car is shit so ford owners are turning to cars.
The stylus on the surface pro kind of sucks for art though. Compare it to an Apple Pencil or Wacom.
Now if the stylus was better I would agree.
Yes.
But now that web browsers bundle video calling functionality (WebRTC), Microsoft has decided to create a new version of Skype for Linux, which is pretty much just a web browser. This is currently still in Alpha, but seems to largely be usable.
I didn't say it was less powerful than the iMac. I said it was underpowered. Considering the intended use and the high price.

Years ago when I first heard about Ubuntu it actually used gnome as the default interface. Why they changed it?
I give you a point for the batteries, my 4 year old mac book pro barely lasted two hours under regular use, however everything else ran smoothly.
