    Replace MacBook battery before it becomes "vintage"

    Hello, I've got a 2014 15" MBP that I want to keep as my main device for another 2/3 years (when I'll hopefully finish the university). The laptop is still in mint condition and pretty powerful for what I do, the only issue is that lately the battery health went a bit downhill, quickly passing...

    Will there ever be MacBook Pros (or Macs) with refresh rates higher than 60Hz?

    They already made the jump to 120Hz on iPad right? I'd love to make the jump to Macintosh computing but the refresh rate is a deal breaker. Due to my Windows set-up I am used to 144Hz refresh rates and hence everything else looks very cheap and stuttery to me.

    BookBook users with Retina MacBook Pros: how does your display coating hold up?

    Hi everyone, I recently replaced my non-retina 2012 MacBook Pro with a 2018 MacBook Pro, and while the 2018 MacBook Pros are not part of Apple's service program for the display coating I can't find any information about it having changed since the 2016 MacBook Pros.

If I leave my machine on sleep and go away for a couple hours, I'll come back and find that my Mac tried to shut down. Only Firefox refusing to...

    I have a few business trips coming up, and I need to go as light as possible. So, sacrificing a bit of performance for compactness is an acceptable tradeoff. I was initially thinking of picking up one of the current UMPCs (GPD Pocket 2, GPD MicroPC) but realized that the small screen would...
