WOL must be enabled in the both the basic input/output system (BIOS) and the network card.

The listening computer receives this packet, checks it for the correct information, and then boots if the Magic Packet is valid and if contains the network card's MAC address.The Magic Packet is broadcast on the broadcast address for that particular subnet (or an entire LAN, though this requires special hardware and/or configuration).The network card listens for a specific packet, called the "Magic Packet.".The target computer is in standby, hibernate or shutdown, with power reserved for the network card.Wake-on-LAN (WOL) allows a computer to be powered on or awakened from standby, hibernate or shutdown from another device on a network.

With Wake-on-LAN activated, a network administrator can wake up sleeping machines at any time in order to perform on-demand software patches or updates.

I can't wait for spring when Apple releases a new iMac.Another way to ensure that sleep settings do not interfere with the distribution of administrative software updates (such as Windows security patches and antivirus definitions) is to utilize Wake-on-LAN features. I'd seriously consider getting one if I were in the market for such a laptop, however my 12" MacBook suits me just fine for what I use it for. I haven't used the one with the touchbar but the 13" without it was pretty nice.

Yes, we know Apple needs to update the iMac (Again, nothing to upgrade to)

Yes, we know Apple needs to update the Mac Pro (Nothing to upgrade to) They know at some point a new technology is going to come out and Apple is going to fully switch over to it. This is nothing new and I'm puzzled as to why people think this is, even people who claim they've been buying Apple products for 25yrs. They've always done this and should continue to always do this. This is what Apple does.they push forward when nobody else will.

Bitching and complaining won't change anything! Apple isn't going to cater to your personal needs. This is the MacBook Pro Apple has presented and this is what you're getting. We don't need to be reminded in every god damn article. We know it doesn't have MagSafe, we know it doesn't have the legacy (YES Legacy!) USB A, etc. Let the continuous bitching go on about how much this MacBook Pro sucks.Yes, we know it doesn't support 32GB even though you don't need it.
