Honestly, the only thing I will miss is the escape button but that was misplaced on the keyboard anyways. 10.12.1 added support for making caps lock into an escape key and that's if anything an improvement over where escape was before.
I use caps lock as control.
Honest question: what's the alternative? I've got a 2013 rMBP 15 inch. What's my next machine? I'm not willing to regress on display (220 ppi or better), screen size, or battery life (8-9 hours real use). I might regress on quad core to dual core if everything else is perfect. EDIT: The XPS 15 gets more like 5-6 hours with the high res display by my understanding. The Surface Book has the right combination of resolut…
I see a lot of people choosing the XPS (including Linus). I tried it and for those who prefer Linux it's pretty great!

Do you think system76.com is a good alternative from the developers point of view?

It's worth noting that only the higher-end of the new MBP's have the Touch Bar. The lower end still has a traditional function row: http://arstechnica.com/apple/2016/10/no-new-macbook-airs-as-...
