Apple's new M1 chip instantly changes resolution
This is one of those things you didn’t know you wanted until you saw it. Here is the new M1 MacBook instantly changing resolutions.
The Next Apple MacBook
This is all speculation at the moment, but if the rumors end up being true, the next ARM-based Apple laptop is going to be insane on performance and battery. I’m all for Apple bringing everything in house again.
The Black MacBook
This was the first MacBook I remember actively using despite never owning one personally. I had friends in college who had this — yes, in this glorious black color — and I always loved using it. I remember it being heavy and clunky but so easy to use. The iPod may have brought me into the ecosystem, but the MacBook is really what made me want to stay.
Aukey USB-C Hub for MacBook
So funny, I was just raving about this little Aukey USB-C Hub adapter for MacBook laptops and today 9to5Toys is offering a limited-time coupon to get one for just $35.99. It is the MacBook accessory I carry with me that makes my life so much easier. Works well, very solid, and won’t break your ports or the bank.

The Line Dock is a USB-C MacBook charging and connectivity accessory for $149
This can't possibly be $149. No way. The Line Dock is currently funding on Indiegogo (why don't they just make the damn thing and sell it instead of crowd-funding it?) and it advertises itself as not only a thin extended battery, but also a full USB-C dock with SD card reader, USB 3 ports, cooling fan, and Thunderbolt 2 ports as well. Once off Indiegogo, the Line Dock is supposedly going to sell for $249.
That seems like a ton of stuff for so cheap. I really want this project to succeed because it could potentially be a great MacBook accessory, but the skeptic in me says there's bound to be some huge hiccup in the future for this. And as crowd-funding projects go, I'd rather just sit it out and wait for the product to be on a store shelf. If it's good, it'll find its way there I'm sure.
PS: I also forgot that it's a STORAGE DEVICE as well. Seriously, no way they can pull this off at that price. Just no way.
