![]() Once we move to 802.11AC at the office I think ethernet will become a thing of the past. I definitely make use of the ports on the MBP but the MBA is always using Wi-Fi (no ethernet or USB) so the lack of ports is not a problem for me at home (all my data is in the cloud or on network storage). My port usage varies greatly between the two laptops. I have a current gen 15" MacBook Pro at work and a 2012 MacBook Air at home. Why the MacBook? I can only speak for myself but the main draw (as pointed out by SSK of all people) is the OS and the trackpad. why would anyone go for a Macbook? (With the exception of those who can't seem to get out of the RDF)ĮDIT: Looks like Lenovo joined the fight Various storage options (But who's not going to just go for the 512GB SSD anyway?) With all this talk about Apples new Macbook, why are people ignoring the Asus Zenbook UX305? And I wouldn't be surprised if they'd be happy with it - sensible design and quality build, and generally free of design fads.Īnd to think that simply wanting a good 'ol RJ45 port could be considered old school. To be entirely honest, if anyone in the family needs a new laptop any time soon, I probably will recommend one of the current Probooks (600's, not 400's/4000's), or similar from other manufacturers (not Lenovo/superfish distributor on some models). HP 640g1's and 800g1's are just as easy to upgrade as my 6530b (same thing but several generations back). ![]() At least most current business laptops still have plenty of upgradeability. ![]() Come on, thin and light is nice, but to the point where we're flat out removing functionality left and right? I guess the ASUS is better, but even as a student who will (once moved off campus) be carrying a laptop back and forth, I'd still rather have a fatter laptop with more ports. I think all of this is being taken to an extreme. The ASUS looks decent, but to be honest, I'm not interested in any of these. ![]()
