#3I have a 2015 MacBook Pro that I.T. has offered to replace.
Nooooope! By the looks of how things are trending, I'm keeping this thing until I move on or they fire me.

#6I guess the author didn't buy the version with the touch bar. That thing is not just useless, it's actively detrimental to the user experience.
I cannot count the number of times I accidentally pressed escape, or had to press twice for one of the buttons to register.

#7I got a new MBP for work, and every time I go home to my ~2015 model I am so happy to not be typing on this new shitty keyboard, and that is to say nothing of the oversized trackpad always accidentally causing me to move my cursor with my palm.

#8It always pays to look at the alternatives. Sometimes the latest isn't the greatest. Unfortunately, time is particularly cruel to computing hardware and software. Downgrading to an old laptop is, at best, a temporary fix. The author of this article should consider other OS's and hardware manufacturers.

#9Got tired of re-buying 2011 Macbook Pros because it was getting kinda ridiculous. Decided the only things I actually care about are Lightroom, the keyboard, decent drivers and power management, and a terminal app.
New machine is a Dell XPS 15 running Windows. Keyboard and build is almost identical to Macbook, no N-key rollover but I can live without. Otherwise, meh, why is everyone still so attached to these dumb overpriced machines?
