Live Coverage of Apple's 'Hello Again' Mac Event

[The Weatherman]

Real DJ's use turntables or Serato/Traktor not this freeware btw.

 

[The Captain]

Since when is working with your hands in photoshop one over the other more natural and "fun" than with a left and right orientation, you know they way they where born? I can see a lot of people accidentally hitting the keypad with their touchbar hand.

 

[rwilliams]

I think you folks can forget about an iMac or Mac Pro announcement today. They're going LONG on this MacBook Pro.

 

[TMRJIJ]

I'll wait for Pixelmator to do something with the touch bar and GPU

 

[nbritton]

Touch bar is stupid... who actually uses the build-in keyboard in an office setting? I always use an external keyboard, mouse, and magic-pad when possible. Of course, now they took away my USB port so how the hell am I going to connect my USB keyboard? Furthermore, touch bar forces you to look down at your keyboard because the buttons are always changing.

 

[Rafterman]

We really don't need to see how 20 different apps work with the touchbar - we get the idea.

 

[erzhik]

When you have no products to show off, you just demo the hell out of apps.

 

[DevNull0]

I don't know if Apple's current perspective is funny or just sad.

They add one new gimmick, the touch bar, and they honestly think that's all that matters? They think they can sell a gimp piece of crap with a touch bar and nobody will notice because "oooh touch bar".

 

[TheRainKing]

I'm surprised at the negative reaction to Touch Bar. It looks like a useful feature and if you don't like it you can switch back to F keys anyway.

 

[BootsWalking]

LOL, you have to constantly look at the touchbar instead of the screen. This is such a brain-dead idea.

 

[Steve121178]

This music demo is horrific.

 

[EightyTwenty]

This press conference is BORING AS HELL.

 

[jeff7117]

MOAR TOUCH BARRRR!!

What a freaking joke.

 

[Geordiekeith]

WIRED HEADPHONES!

 

[Tech198]

he's not good at this ..

 

[TheHorrorNerd]

Why do people pay to watch these clowns "press play?"

 

[ssl0408]

These have become painful to watch - the last 3 events.

 

[amirite]

This is literally the most exciting Mac announcement in years. What the hell do you people even want?

 

[iThingsGurl]

Is it just me or did today's entire event revolve around the new Touch Bar strip?

 

[snakes-]

hm no new other Macboocks 🙁 ? for me touch bar is to complicated

 

[duervo]

Wait, wait, wait. I can't connect an iOS device without a dongle???

No. Since the Macbook came out, Apple has been selling a USB-C to Lightning cable.

 

[keysofanxiety]

Hold up guys, does the new MBP have a touchbar?

 

[DonutHands]

They are really, really, reeeeally trying to find uses for this un necessary piece of hardware.

 

[Jobsian]

Anyone else hearing a tonne of smutty innuendo?

 

[eclipse01]

Seems the Apple Events on Apple TV doesn't work. Stopped playing, now it's completely broken. Even after a restart.

mine stopped once but was able to start it back up again right away.
