Perhaps the same approach should be carried through to their website. The 3mb background gif is janky in Safari, and in Chrome makes my MacBook fans spin up.

3,000+ default packages? I'm a *nix minimalist, so this makes me uneasy. It really is insane.

I'm digging in my closet for a 32 bit machine so I can put it on bare metal immediately.

I have a Lenovo x200 (y'know, lighter/older hardware, like they target) and the website does not make my laptop happy.

Yes your right....but the website looks super trippy ;)

I'm just tired of people saying that there 3000$ laptop start's spinning and safari is lagging...as if MacBook's are the standard in technology (hint, its not, it is a overpriced hipster brand)

As a *nix minimalist, you should probably run everything else than linux, NetBSD? OpenBSD?

In all honesty, being this grumpy after such harmless comment isn't very healthy. Also what OP experiments happens in e.g. my PC and Android as well. I hope you're ok.

To compare your smartphone with a full-grown Mac-book makes ME sooo happy, they have the same performance problems...i just love your comment.

I paid $1800 for this MacBook... and sure, for all I know it's a pile of shit. But a website being either janky or a massive CPU hog seems like a reasonable critique given the context.

Also, "you're", "their", "starts", "MacBooks", "it's" and "an".
