Was in the Apple store today and had a look at the MacBooks. I’m not really a laptop man as my iPad does everything I need and I already have a HP laptop from work to do anything productive.

Normally I just look but this time I actually started to write stuff and tap away at the keyboard. Good grief this thing is hideous now I get all the complaints. It seems to stick at times and I’m not even sure if I hit some of them. It also seems very “clackity” do you ever get used to it? My HP laptop is glorious to type on.

Don’t fret, from what I understand Apple is going back to the scissor mechanism keyboard next year - which is why I’ll wait until then to buy my MacBook Pro. One of these days hopefully Apple will learn.. “if it ain’t broke, don’t fix it”.
