Statuses

I had been hoping against hope for updated laptops at the late March event, but no dice. I would wait to buy, but I need a machine for App Builders Switzerland in Lugano in less than 2 weeks.

The only laptops I’ve used since mid-2012 are 15” retina MacBook Pro’s (most recent being the late 2013 revision), but those were always primary machines. The 12” should be interesting.

I settled on a 12” MacBook, m3/256 GB SSD/16 GB RAM as secondary travel machine. Hoping I can get away with the lesser storage because it will not be my primary (iMac).

I need to pick up a laptop as a travel Xcode machine. My iMac will remain my daily driver, so I think 12” MacBook is fine. But which CPU? Is faster CPU worth the reduced battery life? Also wondering if 256 GB is large enough.
