I don't know what kind of programmer you are, but, as a programmer, I really don't use f-keys that much. To run the program, sure, but I think and write code far more than that.
Yeah, Ive only got the older models (5D Mk2, 7D Mk1) and a single slightly newer one, the 5D Mk3.
In my experience, Surfaces are indeed nice laptops, but definitely not bad-ass tablets.
XQD, havent heard for that before.
A relative of mine used the 1D-X, (Canon have this rent-a-camera thing sometimes at events) and he said he absolutely loved it.
I just find Photoshop so much easier to use now that I know it.
At least your not buying an Office Suite on a subscription basis on a "Pro" device.
Back to your point, you've had to buy adapters for anything for ages. I recently found an Ethernet to USB adapter from the 90's.
Weird, I was wondering if I was capable of servicing my MBA, and I have changed a water pump on a Chevy Celebrity before. Thanks for the encouragement!
Over enginnered crap that insists that you use every program, and that constantly tries to force you to use it exactly the way apple engineers want you to.
> You're hyped about a $4,000 laptop with 16GB of RAM, barely 9 hours of battery life, and no USB ports or SD card slot?
Really?
Well, my FireWire 800 SD reader was way faster than the built-in SD slot soooo... I'm excited for an Apple laptop with no proprietary ports, but disappointed about the RAM and keyboard.
Lower end models have SD slots, higher end models have CFast (Canon) or XQD (Nikon).
Linux users love pointless hyperbole
I mean, out of curiosity, name some? I'm not defending it but I don't think anything beyond my camera and my phone use an SD card.
It's upstream is Debian now.
Photographers?
macOS doesn't really run well on pcs unless hardware is vetted first. I'm not sure about Linux on macs.
"It kinda works if you have the right hardware" comes to mind.
The Performance Base model uses a 965m.
Oh? I remember they came out with the debian edition. Have they completely switched switched over to that now and cut canonical out of the picture now, I guess being the point?
None the less you should still get along with it just as well as Ubuntu still which you'll find plenty of info on if you're not familiar making it great beginner distro.
The colorspace management advantages macOS has will probably keep pros from leaving.
Then what if you got a $15 SD card reader?

I was being kinda facetious. But surely if you're a photographer who's buying a $4,000 computer and presumably has a camera worth several thousand dollars, you can afford a $20 USB-C SD card reader. Apple doesn't need to deal with the added complexity and additional possibilities of component failure that having an SD card slot would mean for a laptop.
Yeah but it's definitely a crappy tablet experience.
It charges with the same cable I use for my monitor. Am I the only one that sees that as a benefit?
Oh and I also hate adapters too btw.
But I feel not as burned by this because I mainly use my computers for audio. I know I have a dock that everything is connected to and simply is connected to my computer with one cable. If you hate socks I can see why you'd hate it but, some decked out TB docks are pretty friggin awesome.
Good question. I see SD slots as "camera slots". I once used SDs for Nintendo Wii and PSP.. but nothing else beyond that. I have Android devices that have them, but frankly using Dropbox or Google Drive is much more convenient to exchange APKs and whatnot..
Not as in $, but as a solution.
I use OptimalLayout. http://most-advantageous.com/optimal-layout/
There also others.. Spectacle is open source for example https://www.spectacleapp.com
Another paid app is Moom https://manytricks.com/moom/
With the new Unix bash in Windows I thought about switching to my (more powerful) Windows machine for work, but I realized that I would miss many polished applications. The UI is just ace.. Windows still looks clunky and professional apps are rare or overpriced.
They haven't been interested in the pro market since the iPhone. They abandoned Shake, one of the most popular compositors at the time, that was the first sign. Then they made FCS a prosumer piece of software. The new mac pro was actually a pretty great direction to take it, but it's now 2 generations out of date.
Even the thought of giving up the trackpad is too much. I might just give my 2012 Air a clean install.
How many times have we heard this. It's still more trouble than it's worth to the vast majority of people.
Hmm, well I suppose I could use those. Really hope Apple considers adding window snapping and other window management features in the next MacOS iteration. Most Linux desktops have those features as well, so it just seems so odd for MacOS to not have them.
