This is becoming a rant… Sorry! :) Back to the topic at hand. Mac mini then? with Intel Iris Graphics, 16GB RAM limit? No thank you! The new iMac’s are slow, unless one buys the biggest, largest, most expensive version, and the MacBook Pros, well, we’ve discussed that. The 2010 MacBook pro is running on it’s last legs, the 2011 iMac is in urgent need of replacement. I still dislike windows, but unless Tim Cook gets a bonk on the head and starts to rethink his decisions, I probably will not be developing on a Mac for much longer.

Since the Windows 10 Anniversary Update, Windows offers Bash and all goodness that comes with Ubuntu linux, right at your fingertips. Reasons to stay with macOS are rapidly diminishing, and reasons to start using Windows again are gaining support.
Don’t know why, but it runs so much better on a discrete GPU than it does on intel Graphics) (Yeah, I know, I KNOW, I don’t need ‘awesome graphics’ for web development, but I like to game also, and to be honest my favorite IDE – phpStorm – DOES prefer a sturdy GPU. This one has other issues, but at least it has got awesome graphics (nVidia 980), max 64 GB RAM and a “normal” laptop keyboard.

For the same amount of money you can buy a portable powerhouse like the Asus ROG G752vy (seen in my post about this). Great for thinning the device, but again, not “Pro”. The keyboard is ultra thin and has good tactile feedback, but the keys need a firm press, and travel almost nothing. A 16GB memory limit (which with the compression tech used is like 24GB for any other OS) is great for battery life, but it’s not “Pro”. Surely intel graphics are enough for typing letters and calculating spreadsheets, it’s not Pro. While the new Macbook Pro is quite a feet of engineering, it is hardly “Pro”. Microsoft integrating Bash into Windows 10 with WSL (Windows Subsystem for Linux).Apple going for thinner, lighter instead of stronger performance, and.A multitude of recent developments have aided me to make a choice.
