anarkhos Posted April 9, 2017 Share Posted April 9, 2017 I just dropped another MacBook and I'm done. I can't deal with Apple's {censored} hardware anymore. I'd pay big bucks for a decent laptop, but Apple simply doesn't make one anymore. The TiPB was indestructible, but those days are long gone. I want to buy an MSI 17" or something similar but they all use Optimus. Intel graphics suck—on this MacBook you can't even play videos full screen without losing frames unless I turn on discrete graphics manually. Is there any hope for Mac users or am I destined to use Windows due to lack of good hardware from Apple? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
