THINNER. Make it THINNER. THINNER.

hope the clickless trackpad thing is not true

lol no escape key

It's worse than that, it's right next to power.

lol at power as a keyboard key, what is this, a quadro

you think they care about that?? the keystroke for close window has been one key away from the keystroke for quitting the entire application for 30 years now

"Hey could you look at this file for me - here, it's on this USB stick"

*12" MBA owner sweats profusely*

Also kinda lol that they are gonna swear off all of the ports except TRS and mic ports, both of which are decades old tech

what if it had... a lighting port

Fucking with key spacing is unconscionable btw

time to design a simple and smart looking usb type c adapter utility belt

can't wait for the future when you unroll the keyboard and screen and they're both full sized but the laptop is tiny

like when the technology gets good enough there will be a full number pad, with lots of space

The new Dell xps laptop at CES has a minuscule bezel. Be surprised if this one doesn't follow suit.

that is how a few companies have been infiltrated, yeah

Being used to windows computers for work, I fucking hate typing on my wife's mac, everything is in stupid places and highly useful keys like pgdn are inexplicably missing.

what do you use page down for?

Fast scrolling

I hated that tiny little mac keyboard too. Gotta do numbers from data entry points not linear.

Fast scrolling

Essential in reading overlong legal briefs/decisions!

space bar in the browser, ctrl-v in a text editor, or fn-down if you're stuck in lol word

so which WATCH is everybody gonna get

Option + arrow keys also functions like pgup/pgdown

I've been stucking using a windows box for several days and those page up down keys have wasted a lot of my time b/c I inadvertantly keep clicking them and ending up in the wrong place. if I were used to this dumbass keyboard maybe that wouldn't happen but any day now I hope I'll be back on mac

I agree w/ man alive re absence of pgdown, when scrolling through a 300 pg document the apple + whatever adds up over just a pgdn

That's why I got the full sized wired keyboard, has the numpad + home / end / pgdown / pgup keys

Sexxy

Home key crucial to get back to yr bookmarks

^ that's my jam

yeah, full-sized wired keyboard 4 life
chiclets rule

aw yeah full size keyboard baby

guys you all need to learn vim keybindings

NO ☃

the move to a single port is a joke, right? that can't be real.

Karl, let me introduce you to the speculative rendering rumor mill

kudos to you all for introducing and learning us all on these oh-so-intuitive apple innovations.

After using the same flip phone from mid-2009 until the beginning of this year, I am now on an iPhone 6 128 GB.

I haven’t even really taken it out and used it yet.

welcome

the world man, THE WORLD, you see it now

I took some pictures last nite. Might try out Apple Pay soon.

my kid found my old iphone 4 and is using it as an ipod touch. it seems so tiny i can't imagine using it for anything but an actual phone.

I will get a new laptop this year, if:
- it can run an external display with a resolution like the new iMac has, via a standard
- new Intel chipset
- biometric auth like iPhone (possibly optional)

I wouldn't know where to put a TouchID on a laptop itself but I can imagine having Handoff request a TouchID from your phone before unlocking the Mac. Or just unlock when your Apple Watch is nearby.

Be amazed if you get the first one, tbh. Is anything close to that bandwidth yet?

displayport 1.3 iirc

Everytime I look at this on the apple page

SAME HERE.

so i lost my cheap flip phone that i've had for years. i have an upgrade available w/ verizon so i thought i might as well get an iphone, but i don't really feel like paying for one and i'd rather get the free upgrade. to date i've basically tried to avoid thinking about this shit and was quite happy with my flip phone + an 32gb ipod touch, it worked fine.

looks like the only iphone i can get for free in my upgrade is an 8gb 5c. or i could get a pre-owned 16GB 5 (there might be a fee for it though_). some questions:

1. apparently there is not much of a difference between the 5 and the 5c except that the 5c looks like of cheap and plasticky? is the 5c a piece of junk? is there any advantage to going with the pre-owned 5?
2. is the 5s that much better than the 5c that i should pay $99 for it?

8gb seems pretty low for storage and i'd like to not have to carry around my ipod touch for music, seems advantageous to just have one device. i'm kind of behind the times though, is storage that important when you can use icloud access music in itunes? help please thanks!
