> that puts lighter/older hardware first.

Perhaps the same approach should be carried through to their website. The 3mb background gif is janky in Safari, and in Chrome makes my MacBook fans spin up.

Stop buying shitty hardware from apple, i always hear the same (mimimi my fan on the MacBook spins up...mimimi safari is janky)

DONT BUY APPLE....is that so complicated?

I have a Lenovo x200 (y'know, lighter/older hardware, like they target) and the website does not make my laptop happy.
Yes your right....but the website looks super trippy ;)

I'm just tired of people saying that there 3000$ laptop start's spinning and safari is lagging...as if MacBook's are the standard in technology (hint, its not, it is a overpriced hipster brand)

I paid $1800 for this MacBook... and sure, for all I know it's a pile of shit. But a website being either janky or a massive CPU hog seems like a reasonable critique given the context.

Also, "you're", "their", "starts", "MacBooks", "it's" and "an".

Yes a bit, but next time don't pay 1800$ for a 'pile of shit'
I'm not a Mac fan, and I'll just say for the record that bad software (including shoddy websites) can bring any computer to a temperature that a silly fan spins up.

Fans spinning up isn't a sign of bad hardware, it's a sign of a cooling system doing what it's supposed to do.

Loud fan-noise however is a sign of bad thermal-management and engineering.
In all honesty, being this grumpy after such harmless comment isn't very healthy. Also what OP experiments happens in e.g. my PC and Android as well. I hope you're ok.
To compare your smartphone with a full-grown Mac-book makes ME sooo happy, they have the same performance problems...i just love your comment.
3,000+ default packages? I'm a *nix minimalist, so this makes me uneasy. It really is insane.

I'm digging in my closet for a 32 bit machine so I can put it on bare metal immediately.

As a *nix minimalist, you should probably run everything else than linux, NetBSD? OpenBSD?
