shouldn't it be the other way around with the integrated chips, thinner screen etc etc?
- mandmandam 5y agoPeople, including me, were pleading with them to stop trying to make things so thin over giving better batter life, thermals, cost effectiveness etc for the past 7 years or so. I am delighted with this change. If you want light and thin get an Air; I want thermals, power, and bang for my buck.
