Because nobody asked, other quick thoughts on the new M3 MBP vs my 2019 Intel MBP:
I miss the old machine’s weight (~0.2 kg / 0.5 lbs lighter) and its shape. The curve of the case was so elegant.
The new keyboard is magnificent, even vs post-butterfly MBP.
As much as I wanted to like it, I don’t miss the Touch Bar, with one exception: adjusting brightness on multiple displays.
Dedicated SDXC port: why?? I’d rather have another Thunderbolt.
The notch bothers me •far• less than I’d expected.
