A nice place to discuss rumors, happenings, innovations, and challenges in the technology sphere. We also welcome discussions on the intersections of technology and society. If it’s technological news or discussion of technology, it probably belongs here.

Remember the overriding ethos on Beehaw: Be(e) Nice. Each user you encounter here is a person, and should be treated with kindness (even if they’re wrong, or use a Linux distro you don’t like). Personal attacks will not be tolerated.

We asked professionals if they wanted Apple’s desktop, and they all said no.

The MacBook Pro is the best laptop I've ever owned. It is extremely powerful, hugely energy-efficient, and the mechanical keyboard is finally really nice.

Since the MBP entirely scratches my business itch, the only desktop I'd buy is a gaming rig, which the Mac Pro certainly is not.

Edit: butterfly keyboard not mechanical keyboard, sorry!

I guess not mechanical keyboard... maybe I meant butterfly keyboard.

I don't think you meant that. The butterfly keyboards were pretty much univerally hated and Apple doesn't use them anymore.

Macs just have a pretty good scissor switch keyboard.
