Could Apple Silicon really do all the things they said? Turns out the Apple Man can deliver-at least, at the lower end. Last year’s highly anticipated Apple Silicon announcements made a lot of crazy promises. But Apple hopes that a brand-new chassis design powered by their mightiest processors yet will be enough for you to forgive them. Spending five years chained to this albatross of a design felt like an eternity. Most MacBook Pro users were still waiting for something amazing, and it turned out Apple was too. Skyrocketing warranty costs from failing keyboards and resentment for the dongle life dragged these machines for their entire run. You have to go back to the PowerBook 5300 to find Apple laptops getting so much bad press. Even if Intel had delivered perfect processors, the design was still fatally flawed. It could have worked in the alternate universe where Intel didn’t fumble their ten and seven nanometer process nodes.
The lightest, thinnest, most powerful laptop that had the most advanced I/O interface on the market. Apple really thought they had something amazing with the 2016 MacBook Pro.
People are always expecting something amazing, I guess. And the iPhone, and iPad, and, well, everything else. Me too.”įor the past, oh, six years or so, Apple has found itself in a Mister Incredible-esque pickle when it comes to the MacBook Pro. After a brief pause, the kid shrugs and says “I dunno… something amazing, I guess.” With a regretful sigh, Mister Incredible forlornly replies: “Me too, kid. “Well, what are you waiting for?” asks Bob. Bob steps out of his car, and meets the hopeful gaze of the kid once again. Facing another disruptive relocation of his family, Bob Parr can’t muster up the anger anymore-he’s just depressed. He’s at his absolute nadir-you’d be too for being fired after punching your boss through four concrete walls. Time passes, but things aren’t any better the next time we see Bob arriving home from work. Bob, realizing he accidentally outed himself as a superhero, quietly sets the car down and backs away, hoping the kid will forget and move on. The poor boy’s staring with his mouth agape, his understanding of human strength now completely destroyed. Both Bob and the kid are trapped in an awkward silence. Just as he’s about to hurl it down the street with all of his super-strength, he locks eyes with a neighborhood kid. Pushed to his absolute limit, Bob Hulks out and hoists his car into the air. Indignities pile up one after another: monotonous stop-and-go traffic, nearly slipping to death on a loose skateboard, and accidentally breaking the door on his comically tiny car. Getting chewed out by his boss for helping people was just the start.
FIRST GENERATION 2012 MACBOOK PRO POWER CORD MOVIE
There’s a bit in the movie where Bob Parr-Mister Incredible-has one of his worst days ever. I’ve always been a fan of The Incredibles, Brad Bird’s exploration of family dynamics with superhero set dressing.
