Are they joking with the new prices?
This has got to be one of their stupidest move in years.

Links? Pictures? Numbers? Letters? Blank Spaces?
...I'll write your name.
$1800 for the bare minimum model? Motherfuckers have lost their damn minds.
They must have seen the prices Microsoft was charging for the new Surface without realizing why it's so fucking expensive (since the display on those alone costs like 2k)
Will still sell like handwarmers in Alaska.
Also the "new" onboard graphics are worse than an RX480...
Tim Cook needs to get fired after all this and the iPhone 7 nonsense.
Everyone I know that is apple all day err day will prolly pony up for this ultra basic piece of equipment.

Also requires an additional dongle if you want to plug in your iPhone 7.
Don't all of their products sync via cloud... why would they want to? (Serious question)

To charge your phone if needed, or if for whatever reason you don't trust cloud storage (i.e. the fappening)
Seriously tho, there's alot of really bad choices on those laptops. For supposedly being a laptop targeted at professionals, not including an SD card slot, and changing from Nvidia (which could easily include the 10 line) to mid range AMD is an awful choice. Any app that supports CUDA just got hot carled.
The touchbar that takes your attention away from the screen to find the button you need is dumb (yes you'll eventually learn where the buttons are, but it's another example of Apple trying to fix a problem that doesn't exist)
To say nothing of the 50 million dongles and adapters that would be required to work with existing peripherals.
Seriously stupid fucking moves. I'm happy I got a free Macbook Pro 13 last year because I'd actually refuse these things.
They are useless for anything I'd need them for.
Especially following Microsoft dropping that fucking amazing new Surface yesterday, Apple dropped the ball big time.
It just seems that Apple is charging more and more and making more fragmented decisions. Touch bar, nice idea, but I got a mouse for that? It's not accurate enough, I don't want to look at my keyboard while I'm in Illustrator, plenty of reasons not to use it. But I think it's a good idea, so perhaps it can be improved upon.
Microsoft Surface Studio is what I'm looking at, as a designer. And in general, Microsoft seems to be making better and better hardware while I feel Apple is no longer making the same innovative strides it used to make.
Using 4k iMac at work, but thats because i didn't pay for it. Use PC at home for sure.
(sent a PM!)
I'd use a Mac if work required it, but yeah PC at home.
So yeah those Apple laptops... do they also come without a headphone jack and no USB ports?
They weren't courageous enough to remove the headphone jack.
It still has USB ports, but they're all type C
