    Hello MacRumors, Last week I brought my Mid 2012 13" Macbook Pro to NCIX to upgrade the RAM and install a new SSD. I upgraded to a 16gb 1600 MHz Corsair memory kit that was specifically for Apple products. The SSD that was installed was the Samsung 850 EVO 250GB. The next day my laptop was...

    So I have had my MacBook Pro 2016 15" for a week now and it's pretty great for the most part. I noticed two things with the hardware that I'm not entirely sure are normal and could be a defect with my machine. The first is that the track pad actually has a LOT of travel at the top middle. It...

    MBP for a week

    I just 'borrowed' (okay so my cousin was out of town when his MBP came, and I brow-beat him into letting me use it until he came back). This thing is sexy thin and the prettiest girl at the ball. But, she's not gonna be the one you leave with. They nailed the aesthetics for sure. But, the...
