Thinness has gotten out of hand at Apple. Why build a phone or tablet so thin and fragile that it requires a case to keep it from slipping out of your hand. My ipad Air2 is so thin that the speaker makes it vibrate. The new macbook is nice if it fits your needs. I does not fit mine. I am considering buying a 2012 MBP, non retina and putting in max memory and a 0.5 or 1.0 TB SSD. I like having USB 3 so want nothing older than 2012. My 2012 MBA can get handed down within the family. I dont need a retina display because I am 75 and retina exceeds the current resolution of my eyes. It would also be nice if Apple produced a simple and affordable desktop in a box that was more upgrade friendly than the Mac Mini. I am using a heavily upgraded G4 tower with SATA drives and a large monitor as a print server, NAS and desktop. Maybe a 2009 or newer Mac Pro would be a good replacement for the G4. -- Bill Freeman
