Here is a summary of the emotions you might feel when you\u2019re buying a new MacBook Pro<\/a>. It can be a gut-wrenching and financially draining experience. But at the end, there\u2019s an Apple computer waiting to run only some of the software you\u2019ve used all your life.<\/p>\n

Let\u2019s jump in:<\/p>\n

    \n
  1. The Initial Shopping High<\/strong> \u2013 You\u2019ve been biting your fingernails to the quick wondering when the optimum time to buy is. You\u2019ve scoured Apple fan sites and taken their advice to heart. Then waited and waited until the release of the newest model. Now it\u2019s here. Dangerously enhanced with Apple silicon. Shiny. New. And full of promise.<\/li>\n
  2. Cold, Hard Reality Sets In<\/strong> \u2013 These new MacBooks cost 40% more than the ones they replace. Twice as much as a Windows laptop and upgrades are out of sight. Warning: at this stage your euphoria may give way to crushing depression.<\/li>\n
  3. Steely Empowerment<\/strong> \u2013 Your delusions of endless creativity crushed, you dig deep and start to examine the entire product line. YouTube pundits recommend you save your money and buy a MacBook Air. Forget the M1 Ultra! You\u2019ll never take advantage of it.<\/li>\n
  4. Overwhelming Dread<\/strong> \u2013 But the Air? That\u2019s a kid\u2019s computer. You\u2019re a serious creator. You need more power and more credibility. You gotta spec this baby up \u2013 up \u2013 up. But you don\u2019t have that kind of money. Is it worse being seen using a MacBook Air or a powerful Windows computer at your local coffee shop?<\/li>\n
  5. Mild Resignation<\/strong> \u2013 You wouldn\u2019t be seen dead using a MacBook Air.<\/li>\n
  6. Panic<\/strong> \u2013 There are just too many variables. Your most important apps run on Rosetta. But the power of the M1 Pro only works on native software. When will your favourite apps port over and finally become Metal compatible? Do you need 16GB of RAM, or 32, or 64? Can you trade in your iPhone for a discount? Can you write this off against tax? Why, Apple? Why?<\/li>\n
  7. Swaggering Confidence<\/strong> \u2013 With all your newfound influencer knowledge you\u2019re now in a position to slice through the Gordian Knot of Apple\u2019s recommended configurations and pluck the ripest, most cost-effective model from their shopping basket of tricks.<\/li>\n
  8. Abject Fear<\/strong> \u2013 What if it\u2019s not in stock and you have to wait months for it to arrive? And what if the new M2 MacBooks are released and obsolete the M1 you just ordered? And what if you chose the one model that\u2019s resale value collapses in a couple of years?<\/li>\n
  9. Reversion To Type<\/strong> \u2013 Maybe you should just buy another PC. After all, it\u2019s cheaper, faster, runs all your apps with no issues and you can play games on it.<\/li>\n
  10. Aspirational Dreams<\/strong> \u2013 But then you\u2019d still be outside the garden walls. You won\u2019t have committed to the cult. Ahem, I mean family. You\u2019ll still be a street punk, not a well-groomed hipster with 50,000 followers. Oh, foul ignominy! Is that to be your fate? No! No, you say! You want more from life. You want plaid shirts and woke friends on Facetime. And you want inside that gated community of wealthy iconoclasts. The ones that \u2018Think Different.\u2019 You want to be just like them<\/em>.<\/li>\n
  11. Hard Nosed Negotiation<\/strong> \u2013 \u201cIf you don\u2019t have it in Space Grey, then only Silver will do.\u201d<\/li>\n
  12. Finally, Freedom!<\/strong> \u2013 You can hack away at your local coffee shop until the microbrewery opens without having to plug in. Wow! Your life is finally complete. There is nothing standing between you and the great American blog.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n
    Update June 5, 2022<\/h6>\n

    Three weeks ago, I bought a 14″ Macbook Pro with 1Tb of storage. It was on sale at MicroCenter<\/a> with $250 off. It seemed like a good deal. Until I got it home. I kept it for 48 hours. The problem was the screen was constantly out of focus. It turns out that I’m not alone. A little digging on the internet turned up all kinds of complaints about the Macbook’s fuzzy display giving people eyestrain and headaches.<\/p>\n

    The culprit? Too many engineers with too much time on their hands. You see, Apple has been ‘perfecting’ font smoothing for years. They finally came up with something fiendish called temporal anti-aliasing. So proud were they, they did away with the option to disable all font smoothing unless you’re willing to code Unix. Well done chaps!<\/p>\n

    The display hurt my eyes. Worse, the off-axis viewing (looking at the screen from anywhere but directly in front of you) reminded me of experiences I\u2019d had with early LCDs back in the 1990s. To further enhance the retro experience, the display\u2019s response time averages 40ms, about 10X what’s currently available. Until Apple gets serious about computers again, I\u2019ll keep my hand on my ha\u2019pennies. Besides, my old HP laptop\u2019s display is going through a good phase right now. It may well last several years longer. Long enough for a viable Linux distro, perhaps.<\/p>\n
