This is not directly aimed at you but rather the hilarity of the situation.

Absolutely crazy how we ended up accepting supposedly professional devices that work like this. Choose between having power or being able to use a external hard drive (unless you purchase accessories of course). Mean while, desktop computers are built to be customizable in every single way.
- ktapcnbje 6y agoI agree that it was outrageous that the MacBook (2015-2019) only had one USB port. However, Apple never called it Pro. The MacBook Pro has at least 2 USB ports.
- capableweb 6y ago> However, Apple never called it Pro. I think in the marketing material, Apple tends to call everything they do "for professionals", not just the line of hardware with "Pro" in its name.
- reaperducer 6y agoNo, this was just a plain consumer-level MacBook, sold alongside both the Pro and the Air line. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/MacBook_(2015–2019) https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/MacBook_(2015–2019)
