I don’t have a Windows PC at the moment so unfortunately I can’t give this one a test. Anyway, I’ve heard good things. Go forth and update. Or don’t.
Oh, I think it is free. That’s generally a good thing. Let me know in the comments if it is super amazing or really shit.
I’m going to have to do a few smaller posts about the 12-inch MacBook as I just don’t have the time to get a full review up all in one go.
First off, we got this MacBook from Hong Kong. I got family to buy it there and bring it back. This makes it considerably cheaper than buying it in South Africa. It is still not cheap but that did help. I also opted to buy the HDMI/USB/USB-C adapter at the same time.
I got this laptop for my girlfriend to replace hers that was taken during the robbery. She initially wanted the Space Grey one but settled on the Gold because there was no stock of the Space Grey. The reasons I opted to spend more money on this MacBook over a MacBook Air 11-inch are:
Apple has announced that prices for Apps and Services will be changing in a few locations, including South Africa.
They do this from time to time and it is fairly standard practise. This happened to us when VAT was added to digital purchases in South Africa. Prices will increase slightly to make up for the weak Rand. This may mean that you have to re-subscribe to anything that has recurring billing.
