    Black Friday deal of Macbook Pro 13" $1399 gone?

    Currently in Amazon.com it's $1479. Can I expect to get the price back to $1399 anytime soon this month? B&H still has the $1399 deal. But I'd love to have it from Amazon since I have gift card balance there. Thank you.

    A week with the 15" Touch Bar MacBook Pro - The Good/Bad.

    Thought i'd post my thoughts after a week with the system. Overall I really like it, but it's not without it's niggles - so my observations so far. (Spec 15" Touch Bar, 2.9ghz i7, 16gb ram, 1TB SSD, Radeon 460) The Good. Silence. It's so nice to have a silent MacBook Pro. My 2015 MacBook Pro...

    Daisychaining dongles

    Many of us are now forced to move to USB-C and buy the dongles. But enough wining. Let's keep this thread technical. Can we daisychain dongles?

    I just received my brand new Late 2016 15" MacBook Pro with Touch Bar. I'm noticing a couple issues that seem a bit off for a $2,800 machine... anyone else noticed these? First, the machine occasionally produces a faint clicking noise. It sounds exactly like the clicking of a mechanical hard...

    13": No-TouchBar 2.4Ghz/16Go RAM vs. TouchBar 2.9 or 3.1GhZ/16Go RAM

    Hi, I'm considering those two configurations for the 2016 MB Pro. I don't really need the Touch Bar per se. I saw on this website (https://browser.primatelabs.com/mac-benchmarks) that there is not that much difference between the two configs, but I'm not very sure how to interpret those...

    I haven't seen any movement on my order and no charge on the CC yet. Did anyone else with the same delivery date saw some movement on their order yet? It'd be great if others could post updates about their orders with the Nov 23-30 delivery date in here. :)

    Which TB3 eGPU enclosure would you consider getting for the new 2016 MBP?

    Personally I am considering either the yet unreleased Asus or maybe the razer core if they asus does not release theirs by December. I'm favoring the Asus because it is supposed to be under 300 dollars and promises only a 5% hit to the GPU's performance. I'm hoping this thread can be a place...

    Apple told me MBP maxes out at 16GB RAM because ...

    "Apple told me MBP maxes out at 16GB RAM because LPDDR3 limit is 16GB/chip; Apple uses it because of performance/energy ratio." So we've got a cap on RAM because they wanted to make it thinner and lighter, with less space and weight available for battery.

    The next MacBook Pro redesign (merged)

    I'm interested in buying a 13" rMBP next week, but I'm worried about purchasing it at the end of its design cycle. I recall Tim Cook saying that major hardware redesigns would be introduced in 2013-14 (I think), but it wasn't clear if this applied to Apple's notebook line. Can anyone comment on...
