    Which MPB: 2012 non-retina or 2014/15 retina?

    I'm looking at getting a newer MBP to upgrade my Mid-2010 model (15"). The new model is out of the question because I don't want to deal with USB-C. Because I really like the hi-res antiglare screen on my 2010 model, I'm considering getting a top-spec 2012 non-retina model with antiglare screen...

    Dell 5k display w/ new MBP – cable/adapter?

    Hello! I own the UP2715K, Dell's 5k display. I am already wondering: What's the smartest way to pair it with the new MBP via Thunderbolt 3? I have seen an adapter for about 100 $ that is said to only support Windows machines (Dual Display port to Thunderbolt 3). Glad, if anyone can help. Cheers

    4K UHD tv as monitor for MBP?
