    Where is Your M2 MacBook Pro Made?

    I've got an M1 MacBook Air made in China, an M1 MacBook Pro made in China, and an M1 Ultra Mac Studio made in Malaysia. I think Apple is working on manufacturing MacBooks in places other than China, but does anyone have a new M2 MacBook made in a location other than China?

    Early intel/PPC gaming videos

    I've started making short youtube videos showing both Windows, Mac and emulated games running on my mid 2009 macbook geforce 9400m. I'll show my g4 powerbook running some rarer titles also. I'm actually surprised at how the little 9400m goes. Its definitely a dramatic jump over the previous...

    Hi guys. I have recently noticed something that makes me a bit annoyed. The FaceTime camera on my MBP 14 M1 Pro 2021 model seems to close to my face when I am in a call. The person on the other side of the connection confirms this issue too. You know that there is a setting in a FaceTime call...

    Charging M1 MBA with 20W charger?

    Has anybody tried to use a 20W charger as their main charger for an M1 MBA and if so is it enough to at least use it plugged in under load without draining the battery, maybe even charge it a bit in the mean time?

    Looking to upgrade my 2013 Macbook

    I have a 2013 Macbook Retina 2.4 ghz quadcore i7. I do some video editing, but it can't really handle hi res video. I want to upgrade to something newer (used) that can better handle video. I don't have the budget for a brand new Macbook. Would a 2019/20 i9 be a worthwhile improvement?

    As the announcement of the 15" MacBook is nearing and knowing it will probably also have the option for a Pro class Processor along with active cooling, would you like to see a similar 13" model with the same specs?

    Is the 14" MBP really the 'cheapest' model to support two external screens?

    At some point I will have to replace my ageing MacBooks. I am using a 13' because that is the size that makes it portable. And at home it is used in clamshell mode with two external screens.
