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.

    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.
