More power, MagSafe, and same ports verses what some are upset about with the 2016 MBPs.Īs for catering to regular consumers, regular consumers, buying multicolor iMacs, clamshell iBooks and iPods are what saved Apple. I don't believe there was any sacrifice of ports going from a PowerBook to a MacBook Pro or they were minor. This was just my opinion, something I noticed while watching the Macworld keynote. Maybe I'm being not critical enough, I'm sure someone will correct me if I missed the point. iPod accessories must have been the Watch bands from the pre-iPhone-era. Of course, in 2006 they still offered a tower Mac Pro, but at Macworld they also announced. But is it not a "Pro" machine anymore just because they showed the Touch Bar displaying emoticons? I think the 2006 presentation included just as much examples for normal consumers and that they didn't change too much from that. Yes, the new MacBook Pro doesn't have all ports available out-of-the-box and the prices are much higher than before (don't know how they compare to the 2006 model?). I totally think Steve would have presented the exact same machine if he were still alive, he would just make it seem more exciting than it actually is. The machine did have some really nice improvements, but we've seen similar improvements for years now across all products. The 2016 keynote itself wasn't anywhere near as good and exciting, that had a lot to do with presentation. I don't think the two machines differ that much if you look at the amount of new features and improvements. The new features were presented as really practical, you could immediately see how this could be something you'd want to have. Everything carefully coordinated and timed. The announcement from 2006 had Steve Jobs, a brilliant speaker who actually did the whole announcement including demos. Touch Bar changes input methods on laptops for the first time in. The USB-C ports support a very wide range of I/O.
It has a new, more stable keyboard and a 2x larger trackpad. Performance has increased, not just processors but also in SSD read/write speeds. The display is lots brighter than before. The 2016 MacBook Pro is the thinnest and lightest yet. On this moment the machines have not yet shipped, but the forums are filled with hatred and disappointment. What struck me were the similarities with the 2016 MacBook Pro announcement.
