Apple products

Don't even bother buying an Apple computer.  Any Apple computer.  They are overpriced and outdated.  Their phones are ok.  Their phones are the only product they're physically updating with new hardware.

 

I have a 2013 MacBook Pro and a 2015 iMac.  Those are the last Apple computers I will ever buy.  My next computer will be a Linux based laptop.  I cannot stand Windows 10.  It's slow and clunky on any hardware. 

 

Linux is the only way to go as an operating system.  Apple hardware is outdated and overpriced.  I like the Apple O/S but from the YouTube videos I've been watching with the Intel i9 processors over heat in such a slim device as the MacBook Pro.

 

The new MacBook Pros lack any viable ports unless you want to live the dongle life.  A dongle for your hard drives, Ethernet or SD cards.  No thanks.  Just stay away from Apple computers.  Apple is now solely an IOS hardware maker.

Edit:  If people buy this, they have more money than brains.  $1999 for a damn phone.  A phone!!!!!!  Something that is outdated the day you buy it and if you drop it and break the screen, you're out $2000 before taxes. 

The importance of computers and post processing.

I have two Apple computers.  A late 2015 iMac with a 5k 27" retina monitor with a 2GB video card, 1TB fusion drive and 32GB of memory.  I also have an early 2013 Macbook Pro with a 2.7Ghz processor, a 500GB SSD hard drive, 1TB video card and 16GB of RAM.

I absolutely love both of these computers.  Why?  Because they just work.  They're responsive and I don't have to fix them every couple of days.  They just work.  I edit 1080p 60fps video on both using FCP X and edit 20.2 megapixel photos created with multiple Canon EOS 6D bodies and various lenses.

I use Mac computers because the administration and upkeep is pretty non existent compared to any Windows bases PC's.  I work for a federal government department that use Windows 7 and Windows 8 PC's.  Let me tell you, they are a headache compared to Macs.  Driver updates, software updates, hardware replacements etc.  For home, you go Mac or nothing else.  Yeah, Macs are more expensive, but you get what you pay for.  In my time, I've built my own Frankenstein PC's and used different MS operating systems from Windows 98 to Windows 10.  When I need things to work, I use an OS X based computer.
