Apple fans returning new MacBook Pros with Core i9

Re:Apple fans returning new MacBook Pros with Core i9 by wilsonnb2 on Friday July 20, 2018 @03:10PM (#17577944)

Headline: "Apple fans are returning their new MacBook Pros that cost a minimum of $2,800 because they can't reach the advertised speeds"

Actual data: two Reddit comments that say they're going to return their MacBooks

What's wrong with the headline "Youtuber finds New MacBook Pros Not Performing as Advertised" or "Youtuber finds Cooling Issues with High Performance MacBook"?

It's basically useless to read headlines from most online news sources these days.

A few big-name tech websites already confirmed they are investigating the claims and will publish their findings. So we should have some (mostly) impartial conclusions on the topic soon-ish.

The whole piece does have a general hot air feeling to it...

From 200+ comments "cancel" was listed 4 times in that reddit thread and "return" was listed 5 times. Some repeats in there.

We have seen this pattern over and over again. Remember Apple's Q2, where nearly all analyst were negative. Outrage and pessimism were rampant on HN and Reddit. The vast minority complain the loudest while the vast majority go about their lives and work using Apple products.
