In some respects it makes sense. If you need to take it in for repair then you can leave your data safely at home. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk. _________________Do concentrate, 007...

Yup, PCIe based flash storage, which is, apparently, like totally faster than SATA.

Might be, not sure I'd want to bet either way. Probably also cheaper than using Flash RAID.
What I want to know is - why, when there are next to no (in the grand scheme of things) Thunderbolt peripherals to buy, are they buggering about with Thunderbolt 2? 20GB/s not good enough for you?
Oh and anyone want to buy a time capsule? The new ones are super-sexy.

Macworld article feels moved to mention the lack of an optical drive.

Hmm.. might have been useful to have a bluray to burn test disks with but I don't think the Pro's target market is going to be using optical media much other than for that.

Aside from Turing's Chimney, what did people think of the other stuff? Quite liked what I say of OS SeaLion. Not so sure about the flat look of the iOS dashboard but I thought it worked better for the actual apps.

I would imagine that you could use a separate superdrive. It will be probably be listed as an optional extra. _________________Do concentrate, 007... "You are gifted. Mine is bordering on seven seconds." https://www.dropbox.com/referrals/NTg5MzczNTkhttp://astore.amazon.co.uk/wwwx404couk-21

iCloud keychain is fine, I already have 1Password which does all that already. I will stick with that, especially with Prism in the background. Finder tabs can be done now with TotalFinder. Though I suspect that Finder tabs will be more stable than TotalFinder. Finder Tags looks very useful. It will take a lot of work to implement on past documents but I think that it will be worthwhile in the end. Power efficiency is good but better if you use laptops. Skeumorphism had a benefit, and now is not needed, so no loss now that it is going. I do think Maps are improving on iOS so extending to OSX can only be good. iBooks might actually encourage more usage. _________________Do concentrate, 007... "You are gifted.

I think it’s starting to look like it could certainly give Elements a run for its money. _________________________________________________________ ZOPO ZOPO C2 ZOPO C3
