Wow, sheep.horse is my site. I never expected it to reach hackernews. I wrote "RIP Apple MacBook" in reaction to the barrage of over-the-top criticism bandied around in the wake of the MacBook Pro announcement. A lot of the complaints seemed ridiculous to me, I wrote this piece as my attempt at Swiftian satire. For the record: * replacing function keys with the touch bar is a great idea, a real step forward in usability * MagSafe is a great loss but possibly made up for with standard charging ports * No HDMI or SD port, at worst a minor inconvenience * Thinner and lighter - I travel with a 2013 MacBook Pro everyday, there is no such thing as too light. I am not in the market for a new laptop but the new MacBook would meet all my needs perfectly. Expensive though.
