The MacBook Pro is the best laptop I’ve ever owned. It is extremely powerful, hugely energy-efficient, and the mechanical keyboard is finally really nice.

Since the MBP entirely scratches my business itch, the only desktop I’d buy is a gaming rig, which the Mac Pro certainly is not.

I guess not mechanical keyboard… maybe I meant butterfly keyboard.

“Butterfly” was the design introduced with the touchbar MacBook pro. They’ve gone back to the scissor switches they were using before (with some modifications).

Switched from a shitty dell to my Macbook pro laptop when I transitioned to the RHEL side of the house in my company.

Been using it ever since and I will never go back. But yea… I have no idea what the hell i’d ever want a Mac Pro for.
