It might be in everyones best interest to hold out unless you don't need that much ram or money ain't a thang.

Okay, I think I'm leaning more towards the 2016 non-touch model with 16GB of RAM.
I don't do too much extensive work and if I do, it would be photo editing.
with the dongle/cable ordeal, it shouldn't be too much of an issue. (I hope)

I tried to put yall on to Amazon the day after they announced the new MBPs and they were on sale, and they dropped their pricing again after that and yall still sleeping?!
Even if you had bought the first pricing I posted, you know Amazon would have given you that $$ back in a refund to your card
Side Note - I just caught up in this thread and the "Mac Reps" that were/are posting in here are comedy with their reasoning. They are the exact people and reason for Apple pulling the mess that they are and getting away with it

outchea trying to save these boys from further being finessed by Apple, but we still sleep though It's crazy because I'm on slickdeals all the time and I didn't see that deal posted on the front page.
Either way hold this rep in return my Destiny brethren.

Didn't Amazon say that the pricing was a mistake the first time, and now they did it again?

Further finesse is taking place...
Amazon and Crapple is in kahoots with each other.
Apple prices the MBP so high most cry afoul.
Amazon comes by and "lowers prices" to something the sheep deem would "not be that bad".
Even though most laptop nowadays are like $400-$800 and really good next level ones might run $1K - $1.5K
Apple puts out a laptop that doubles those prices heck even quadruple , has less features than said other laptops, but knows they will get away with it because they can.
In the end Apple/Amazon wins... Apple still gets the sale with their mark up, Amazon gets their cut because they came by and looked like they were the heros now because they slashed prices... we get further finessed, and next year or thereafter we'll all be right back here to repeat the process.
BTW I am a proud owner of a 2008 MBP and will ride that **** out until the end.
When it's time to upgrade I will view my options.
But kind of falling into the hype though not going to like, but the biggest throw off is the lack of ports... also now that I see @DiPlOmAt TDOt about to make moves I'm jelly on the low because we both have 2008's and I will try to keep up with the Jones

Apple can do what they want because they make the OS. That said Windows 10 is DAMN good and from the hardware perspective there are some quality machines out there. I still prefer OSx To windows 10, but MS is deffinately taking steps toward the right direction.

I haven't messed around with Windows 10 but I've heard it's way better than 8

I can't say if used Windows 10 unless you count XB1 which yes it is good and quick, but I'm sorry I've had bad experiences with PC desktops from my Packard Bell to HP, but I've had minor issues with my MBP from 2008 so I do think the mark up is justified based on how long it will last you.
You would have to buy 2-3 PC's in that same time span thus wasting more than the cost of a Mac.

Kudos to Apple on slashing some prices on adapters. Prices definitely a little more reasonable, but still an obvious pain point for some.

Windows 10 runs best on a MacBook pro though
