I'm seeing a lot of weird push back on folks buying the new MacBooks.

Businesses need tools right?

I assume you dont run up to your mechanic and berate them for buying an expensive lift when you take your car in for service?

Apple sells them as lifestyle purchases, so I think what people are actually upset about is that someone else gets to buy that lifestyle that isn't them.

  It wouldn't be a proper Apple reveal without a little gnashing of teeth!

  I thought "pro" was short for "prosumer" -- a professional consumer

  I mean I assume pro stands for "Getting paid to use this" 🤣
