Hey, listening is listening. I don't care who's giving them the good stuff, it's working.

#4I'll believe it when they produce a MacBook Pro that developers love again or a Mac Pro that (not yet independently wealthy) developers can afford again.

#5They have been selling trash can for retarded amount of money, 6 years old hardware. Now they made this ridiculous display and another pro and selling it for retarded price again. What exactly they are listening too? And mac mini is a total garbage with soldered micro storage. 256 GB for $6K workstation? Is it a joke? And stop offering iMac scam, displays live longer than hardware, with iMac you will throw away display and hardware along few years after.
Apple is legal scam, dumping extremely overpriced hardware which is barely capable to run their current OS. They dumped tons of mac mini models recently without a reason at all.
Maybe they have listened and replaced idiotic keyboards on macbooks? Oh no, they seems didn't.

#6I think I might just be done with Apple. That culture of saying nothing and the surprising customers with things is like betting in Vegas. And unfortunately for Apple, the house always wins. They can repair the damage of the Mac Pro debacle with a new Mac Pro, but they haven't owned the train wreck of a keyboard on the Macbook Pro. Sure, they might be ready to hit it big on a double down on black, but in the meantime, my Lenovo keyboard is a delight.

It doesn’t get me HN points to say, but I’m a developer who loves my MBP.

I love my late 2013 MacBook Pro too, but I've been longing to replace it for years now, only to be disappointed time and again with each new MBP release. I'm still waiting and wishing for a model worth buying.

#10Back in 2012, I bought the original rMBP.
It fit everything I needed: it was thinner than my previous laptop as it had no optical drive, it was lightweight, it had a gorgeous screen, good enough keyboard, and seemed like a reasonable price for a higher end laptop work computer. I've used it everyday since 2012, and aside from the battery which I eventually replaced, it's been functioning without a hitch. From the 90s to the late 2000s, I used a variety of PC laptops and this was the only laptop that survived a huge amount of abuse from travel and daily usage (obviously, YMMV).
I'd love to upgrade to a new MBP, but I truly don't understand what they were thinking with this current iteration. The touchbar feels gimmicky and over the top. Call me old school, but give me physical buttons any day of the week and keep the keyboard simple. Most importantly, give me a keyboard that has more room to press so that random dust getting in there isn't going to screw shit up.
