![]() One weakness of the MacBook Pro 15 is clearly the number of ports, and further, the lack of port diversity. ![]() More ports would be great on any future MacBook Pro. That means following industry standards as much as possible. The most green policy Apple could adopt is to offer upgrade- and repair-friendly designs rather than pursue thin, disposable designs. Out of warranty, you might as well throw it away. If any of those items failed, you’d be looking at replacing all four. While some don’t think that’s a big deal, consider that the GPU, CPU, RAM, and NAND are all mounted to the same board. Not only is the RAM soldered to the motherboard (which has been the norm for superthin Ultrabooks for some time), but Apple has now chosen to weld the SSD’s chips to the motherboard too. OK, I’m kidding, but iFixit did give it a 1, which might as well be a negative-1. ![]() I’m not sure, but I think iFixit gave the new MacBook Pro 15 a negative-1 in serviceability. IFixit says you can fix the trackpad, but the rest of the MacBook Pro 15 is a lost cause.
