Just like the release date of the new MacBooks, speculation on whether or not the new devices will include the elusive headphone jack has neither been confirmed nor dismissed.

While the lack of a headphone jack may seem like a small feature to lose to some, it is crucial in determining what device to use for some professionals. It is for this reason that having headphone capabilities may prove important when getting a large quantity laptop rental.

Sadly for Mac users, this may be your only alternative to using the previous generation of MacBooks if you want to use your headphones without getting a strange dongle alongside your new device.

If you do decide to switch over to the Windows operating system, you may be pleased with the large variety between the systems. If you don’t like one brand of Windows laptop, you can always swear allegiance to a different brand which also sells Windows laptops.
