I'm kind of liking the idea of the touchbar, but I'm not sold on it, and if the MBP doesn't have the SD port, this is fitting my needs less and less
Got a tip for us?

My entire Final Cut timeline on the touchbar? Not wishing to get into a pi**ing contest my dear, but not sure mine will fit in there!
My hands are tired from just thinking about it. I'd rather they not shoehorn a touch screen into a laptop just to "me too" Microsoft.
Why is she dressed as a school girl?
I'm waiting for her to say "How much would you expect to pay for a great laptop like this? $10,000? $8,000? $6,000? Nope. It can be yours for 3 easy payments of $1,000 each!!!"
the photoshop cartel charing every month money to use their app ? no thanks
I've got a bad feeling. Wouldn't new iMacs come before all this software talk?
Phoebe from Friends hasn't changed a bit.
I think you are missing the point. Which is that you can get parts of your editing UI outsourced to your keyboard which means that you can use your UI for something else (like the full screen view). Of course its not a holy grail and not a replacement for a proper mouse/keyboard UI. But its much more useful than a static strip of function keys that are almost never used. Its about moving useful shortcuts down there to your keyboard.
Another example: two hand usage! One hand on the control bar one hand on the trackpad.
Apple always makes their events too long. Its time to wrap it up, announce models and pricing
yeah me either, just mentioned how it looked like the last lady was pecking at the keyboard.
There is no SD slot. They've shown it from all sides. They're banking on docking stations/monitors.
Seriously all this "touch bar" focus is just stupid. I mean if you implemented entire full touchscreen on the new mbp then you would not need this gimmicky touch bar crap.
But of course that would require apple to do real work as in make macos work right. Implement full touch screen on the damn computer and you would do away with all these gimmicky features. The only feature that is worthy is the new touch ID chip. Other than the larger mac trackpad everything is so meh...please let the price be the same/cheaper.

No legitimate editor is ever going to use that touch bar for editing. Why would you use a SMALLER space to perform edits with?
