Should release them with two headphone jacks just to piss people off.

I have a macbook and a Lenovo laptop and I much prefer my macbook. Dat touchpad, design, less chance of virus, and screen display are where it's at even if it's overpriced. I was told I needed a PC for engineering and it has never made any difference so far whether I'm using PC or Apple for anything

I laugh at people buying these overpriced consumer Apple laptops.
You could get a Thinkpad T420 for $200 refurbished, and do some upgrades:
Throw in 16GB of ram - $80.
Throw in a 250GB SSD - $80.
FHD monitor modification for a 1920 x 1080 IPS screen - $100.
You are still under $500 and have a similar performance laptop to a $2000 MacBook.

Are you some low intelligence hipster who spends his afternoons at Starbucks? Thinkpad T420 fully upgraded legitimately destroys your MacBook in price to performance. Laptops are a means to an end, in my case, a tool; not some pompous box with a fancy bezel for $2000. There should be nothing funny about this to you.

As an Apple fanboy, MacBooks lost their competitive advantage in the past 2 years or so, and I'm glad. Nowadays you can get any ultrabook with the same premium materials and sleek design that Apple formerly had cornered. That's the beauty of the free market boyos. The consumer always wins. Apple will suffer these next couple of quarters due to their arbitrary bs for their recent product line. That Surface Studio looks hnng as ****.

I've tried all the alternative "cheaper and better" windows brands. Dell, Razer, HP, Toshiba etc. They've all had crap reliability and issues at some point. Finally gonna jump on the MacBook train once I get rid of my terrible Razer Blade Stealth, supposedly a MacBook competitor (literally the worst computer I've ever had). You got to pay big money to get the reliability and customer service. That's what a lot of these Windows brands don't have

The Surface Studio is sorta a niche product for graphic design people. I'd personally prefer just building a better PC with a good monitor and using my Wacom tablet instead. I feel as though seeing the full picture and not having my hand/arm covering parts of the screen is better. Also just from normal use I can see tiny little scratches on the pad which with enough use would most likely end up showing up on the screen.
