Apple’s MacBook Pro memory problem is worse than ever::Apple still sells expensive “Pro” computers with just 8GB of RAM and charges a fortune for more.

    What don’t you like about the keyboard? It’s quiet, low profile, easy to type on quickly, lights up… not sure what else you’d want.

      low profile

      that is a problem

      easy to type on quickly

      not really, doesn’t have a clear pressure point, so leads to keys not registering surprisingly often. I also get pain in my hands if I’m working on it for several hours.

      I only can do something like 70-80 WPM on that, on a proper keyboard I’m doing slightly above 100.

      lights up

      Don’t care about that.

      Additionally half the useful keys (pgup/pgdown/end/home/insert/delete/…) are hidden behind FN combinations.

        Everyone’s different. I type 8h+/day on my 2019 (Intel) pro, and if I’m writing text as opposed to code I’m hitting 130wpm consistently and accurately. I’m not a small guy either; it’s hard to find gloves that fit me.

        I can’t stand most laptop keyboards and the old butterfly design was awful, but the current gen Mac keyboards are pretty good for me.
