Hi folks,
I am planning to buy a 13 inch Macbook Pro w/o touch bar. is it worth it? Or should I go for the one with touch bar? I heard that there were rumors that the new macbook pro will be coming in the Spring. Is that true? My last question is I am currently using Window laptop and I plan to use mac and window after that. So, is there any problem for me to access to the same portable harddisk between the 2 OS? |

Hi guys, with the recent attack of ransomware, i got a question. Will our Mac get infected by virus? Or macOS will still infected by virus but just has lower chance comparing to windows?

Ur Hardisk can format into a exfat file. It can be written and read between two so natively. |

QUOTE(shockk @ Feb 24 2017, 02:27 AM) Hey guys. What's up? I found it rather annoying when i turn on the lid and it it auto power up, same as plug in the powerFinally bit the bullet and got my very own 2016 MacBook Pro. My initial impressions after a day of usage, is just WoW! 😳 Build Quality is just impeccable. And this display is just awesome especially with the noticeably-improved contrast ratio over the previous generation of Retina displays of the previous MacBook Pro notebooks. And the Space Grey colour, Oh My God it is GORGEOUS! And the speakers, holy crap, I think these are hands down the best notebook speakers ever, period! There's actually really good bass response! The Touch Bar is just amazing. I could do great stuff like easily bold, underline, italicise, colour my text in Gmail and format text quickly via the Touch Bar in Microsoft Word. And being able to scrub through a YouTube video playing in full screen is just plain awesome too. Last but not least, I love the tap-and-slide function to adjust volume and brightness on the Touch Bar. It is kind of like a Mini-iOS touch screen. 👌🏻 The keyboard is a joy to type on and accuracy is just way better than the previous non-butterfly versions of the previous MacBook Pro notebooks. Sometimes I do find that the limited physical travel can be a bit fatiguing for long typing sessions, but then I'll just plug in my Razer Blackwidow Chroma mechanical keyboard for such usage. Battery life is truly remarkable so far for me for light-to-average app usage. After updating to the latest macOS Sierra, typing a long email (for roughly 20 minutes) on the Gmail web interface in Safari only sipped the battery and the usage time remaining showed a staggering 9 hours+ remaining (constantly) via my monitoring app. My display was set to 30% brightness, and it is sufficient for dimly lit indoor conditions since the total overall brightness output has been increased a lot since the previous generation. All in all, if you are wondering whether this laptop is worth the price, I would say a big YES if you are the type that appreciates bleeding edge state of the art technology. There's just something about the thin build, extreme light weight, and power in such an amazingly-put together and engineered package. Just sharing. 😊 ![]() I get mine at 16gb + 512gb |
