Don't crack that Mac: Almost NOTHING in new Retina MacBook Pros can be replaced

saltysol

I've loved using Macs going back to the late 80's so I suppose I qualify as a fanboi but it's sad to watch a company with such a loyal user base screw their customers so unashamedly. Normally I would have upgraded from my 2010 MBP by now and assigned the older machine to another member of my family but now I've decided to swap the hard drive for a SSD and maxed the RAM so I can cling to it as long as possible. Honestly can't see a future for me and Apple as long as they continue designing disposable products.

Until somebody wants to compete with Apple for the the loyalty of fanboi love I'll likely continue my slow migration toward Linux/Ubuntu.
