I have one that just shipped from China, should be here by April 7. i5/8gb/256gb

The 10th gen intel proc, along with the return to the scissors keyboard has me highly intrigued. I can't wait to get hands on it (after I bathe it in purrell, of course)

Anyone get hands on with one yet?

Yes typing on it now, just arrived last week. It replaced my 2016 MacBook Pro which fell off the couch ruining the display.
Keyboard feels better otherwise very similar to my MacBook Pro with 8 GB memory and 500 GB storage but should be slightly faster with it's I5 Quad-core processor.


No car is as much fun to drive, as any motorcycle is to ride.

Thanks for the reply. I’m interested to see how the quad core proc works with a few browser windows and excel running when mine arrives.

We use the dual core 13” i5 MacBook Pro as a Sales option, and cutting $4-500 per unit AND getting the nice keyboard is so intriguing.

Ordered the same for my daughter. Read the upgrade from the i3 to the i5 was worth it, so I sprung for that. The rest is stock setup.

Interested. dual core with 16Gb of RAM vs the quad core with 8Gb of RAM. Don't know which way to go.



What am I doing? I'm talking to an empty telephone
