Thats a big +1 from me, totally agree David. I will probably go with a 2016 model because I usually update every year. I am considering the 15 inch model with the light bar and the fastest I7 option. I’m not sure if I will go 1 or 2 TB of storage, 2 TB is a huge amount. I have a 1 TB drive now and don’t come anywhere near filling it up. I do wish there was a 32 GB option but we’ve covered that, 16 seems to be all the memoryI can get at least for this year. I will also buy the upgraded graphics option for faster graphics performance and because I experiment a lot with drones and video feeds from different arial platforms. Also like producing youtube videos.
I totally agree with David’s position on technology and am glad apple puts a lot of thought in to the accessibility side of things. > On Nov 3, 2016, at 1:50 PM, David Chittenden <[email protected]> wrote: > > I would prefer a full touchscreen.
