Apple’s most beloved Mac, the MacBook Air, just got better. With under-the-hood improvements, the 2018 Air received a much needed performance boost along with a fresh design. But that’s not all that Apple updated — the MacBook Air also got a new pricier starting price. Starting at $1,199, this year’s Air not only costs $200 more than the outgoing model, but the new price places Apple’s “cheapest” notebook within $100 of the $1,299 MacBook. Both laptops sport slim and svelte profiles and are designed for mobile road warriors. So which should you choose? The slightly larger and more powerful MacBook Air, or the ultra-slim and sleek MacBook? We’ll weigh some of the most important features of both notebooks to guide you in your buying decision.

Apple has finally announced the launch of the 16-inch MacBook Pro — after the longest and most convoluted series of rumors and leaks since the original iPhone. Starting at $2,399, the 16-inch MacBook Pro is available today through apple.com and the Apple Store app. The overhauled design comes with a brand-new keyboard, a higher resolution display, and a separate Touch ID button.

The device has been rumored for months, but as recently as the end of October it was thought that Apple had pushed it back to 2020. In the end that proved false. Also wide of the mark was a decent chunk of the laundry list of possible features and specs the rumor mill kitted the device out with; in the end, many of these failed to come to fruition. Still, for some Mac fans the news that the failure-prone butterfly keyboard has been replaced will be music to their ears. Apple had been … [Read more...] about Apple announces the 16-inch MacBook Pro with a brand-new keyboard

In the last couple of years, Chromebooks have dominated over half of the K-12 education market compelling Apple and Microsoft to rethink their strategies. And for good reason — Chrome OS is relatively affordable and easier to understand and manage, making it ideal for both children and teachers. However, Apple’s senior vice president of worldwide marketing, Phil Schiller thinks otherwise and considers Chromebooks as “cheap testing tools”. In an interview with CNET, Schiller spoke at length about the new 16-inch MacBook Pro’s keyboard and when asked for his take on Chromebooks’ growth in the education sector, explained why he believed Apple’s iPad and MacBooks are better suited for students. Schiller began by outlining Apple’s recent efforts to win classrooms again, and brought up a study the company conducted years ago to gather insights on “the importance and the role of technology in the classroom.” The outcome, he said, was … [Read more...] about That’s rich: Apple VP knocks classroom Chromebooks for being cheap
