The problem with Apple is that extra battery is thrown out the window for the sake of thinness above all else. Can you imagine how much battery life a MacBook Pro could have if they just added back 3mm of height to the mold? Throwing away 4-6+ hours of battery life in the supposedly professional models for the sake of shaving off a couple of millimetres... it's a joke.
The latest MacBook "Pro" is no longer a professional machine... it's nothing more than the new generation of MacBook Air. There is no longer a Pro line, only upgrades for the least common denominator of consumer.
Source: desperately not wanting to give up OS X (it's the only operating system I can stand), but I'm stuck in a position where I flat out refuse to shell out $4200 CAD on a new laptop, when 3 years ago the same level of upgrades cost $1000 less. Their pricing has reached unacceptable levels of greed. That, and no fucking escape key... on a "professional" machine. Give me a break.
