I don't know about anyone else, but I HATE fingerprints, streaks, or interference of ANY kind on my screen. No thanks on touch screen.
Got a tip for us?

they will slowly expand it to the size of an iPad and then can the MacBook
For the love of god Apple!!!! Keep just ONE sodding legacy connector!!!!
I love the laptop and I'm all up for progress but the idea of throwing away literally EVERY USB connector I have is pretty sick and so utterly wasteful.
- USB memory stick
- Network adapters
- Older hardware that still works perfectly.
- Non-wifi printers.
- Cameras like GoPro's
- Fitness trackers
- My DSP car amp
Just SO much use legacy USB devices. Now I have to buy a TON of overpriced adapters to make it all work.
or just get a hub or a few new cables.
painful to watch apple go down like this
They removed too much for me, though I'm very impressed with the performance and display. Lack of SD ports and function keys (physical keys), is hard for me to get over.
Why the **** would I want to keep looking at a 1/2 inch strip of "retina" screen when I have a 15 inch screen just 2 inches north?
The annimations didn’t show the glue permanently affixing the battery to the shell.
I disagree to a point -- the touch bar has the potential to boost personal effeciency as the original Macs menu bar did. The problem I see is that companies like Adobe and Microsoft will only include support for their cloud based versions so if you don't subscribe to Adobe or Office cloud then you lose a great deal of of the functionality the touch bar offers. (Unless it's 100% user programmable and doesn't depend on developer support -- I'm not clear on that).
So apparently the only thing we are going to talk about is the Touch Bar.
So there is no lightening port to plug in the new lightening headphones? Seriously? You keep the 3.5mm headphone jack, but get rid of the USB ports? Are you f*cking nuts?
"New Macbook Pro runs on the latest macOS, Sierra". Well, no **** Sherlock. I'd be surprised if it ran Snow Leopard.
Only 6h less battery life than MS then, not bad
And they introduced an even more complex keyboard?!? The Space Bar on my 2013 MBP broke, and they had to replace the whole top half because they couldn't figure out how to get the replacement key to be seated correctly.
