So we got no new MBP updates today and I'm in desperate need for a new machine for college this fall (as my current mid 2012 rMBP is dead) what do I do? Do I bite the bullet and take the 2017 15" with it's potential keyboard issues, or continue to wait and wait with no end in sight? I need a computer by the fall and with no 100% guarantee they'll come out in early fall I'm a little concerned.
Buy the most current laptop and a keyboard cover. My wife has been using a 2015 MacBook with a keyboard cover since the computer first came out and hasn't had a single issue...same with my 2016 tbMBP.

Take care of your things and they'll take care of you.
