    I have a 16 and a 13 inch macbook. I find the 13 inch to be more convenient when traveling (I do landscape & wildlife photography). The 16 inch is nice to use when at home on the couch or not at a desk.

    That Surface is NOT bricked. Needs a new ssd and fresh OS install.

    Other than that, yeah bigger laptops are usually bigger.

      Could be just an os reinstall

      Did he say the SSD is broken or is everyone just assuming that?

        True, and about the ssd, most of the time there’s an older ssd inside that’s well worth upgrading because it will give a more reliable and faster ssd in return.

    How’s this funny, the Surface is effectively an iPad in size, no one else wants it in the MacBook Airs size.

      Wow I would totally enjoy having a 10" MacBook

      I totally think 11" macbooks were too big and the 10" is perfect

        A 10-11 inch MacBook would certainly be more popular than a 15 inch iPad, the thing is I don’t see them ever doing a sub $1k MacBook again, so I guess it’d be only $100 less than the 13 inch MacBook Air, if they ever brought one back.

      Not as portable as that surface tablet which was designed for on the go use without sitting down (can do with air but not 100% practical as it’s best to sit down on a bench or smth)
