Editing 4K video with a 1.1ghz Core M and a 12" 2304x1440 screen resolution?

Amazing how a post about a Mac draws in moronic comments like these, yea all Apple users are brainwashed idiots who don't know any better, FFS. Have you got so little time you need to take the time to write such BS. Go to any gig, studio design company , music university, you will find the majority of computers to be a Mac, do you think all these people like to buy an expensive computer just for the fun of it? cos it's shiney & silver? there are millions of professional music makers and creative professionals that rely on these machines because. hey are very good at what they do..so grow & stop being jealous, I bet you've never even used a Mac in your life!
FWIW I'm not a Mac fan I work with PC's and Mac's, it's a computer that out lasts the majority of cheap plastic computers, go buy a top of the range pro PC and you'll pay a similar price. Business & creative pro's choose a pro computer because it's reliable not something because it's shiney & silver with Apple on it. Watch one of the biggest IT support companies in the world talk about Mac's & PC"s in business.

BTW I don't like the new Mac Pro's & it's novelty bar, it's thinner (who really cares) means smaller battery, the jack has lost the optical in & it's bloody expensive compared to the old models, USB-C ports are something else , a lot of PC's will go this way, ten times more powerful than a plain old USB port. Comment on the post in question in future not just because you hate people that use a Mac..that just makes you look stupid.

£900 for a 1.1ghz Core M laptop that has a keyboard that's like typing on a flat table is just another Apple rip off for the brainwashed who don't know any better.

MacBooks are amazing. You non-Apple muggles just don't get the magic of Apple stuff and never will. It's not about specs. Furthermore, I will conclude this by saying that Macbooks aren't expensive. You can buy, use it for a year, and then sell it and still recoup 80% of what you paid. Why? Because Macbooks are desirable. How much will you get for your Windows laptop after a year? Nothing, because no one wants to buy one second hand.

i have the newer model for over a year. good machine but it hates bootcamp with windows

a good machine overall.

wow in gold - impressive spec :wink:

MK4M2B/A - This would be the older 2015 model. It's still a very good laptop, but with the 2016 model you get faster RAM, disk and GPU speeds (but slightly lower turbo clock speeds for base model). I had this in silver for a year and had bootcamp on it. Bootcamp ran very well, I was even able to game on it. The touchpad is so good, I could play a competitive FPS without a mouse. No Windows laptop touchpad comes anywhere close. Gaming battery life was surprisingly good, around 4 hours continuous 3D gaming. People who say this is underpowered usually underestimate the Core Mmmmmm.

Great prices, good to see JL selling at pre Apple price rices !

Was going to say the same thing. Instead I'll link to this article. Reading the comments it looks like the tides of opinion is starting to change and people are opening their eyes.

It's just outrageous really the practices that Apple get up to and what their customers have to put up with. A £900 laptop with only ONE port which forces you have a load of dongles (at extra £cost) dangling out the side of the laptop? The Apple customer base really needs to wise up....

Yes I could. I could also build a gaming PC for cheaper. I could also visit a games arcade for cheaper.

It's great for mobile editing in 4K with Final Cut Pro, show me a machine for cheaper that can do that ?
