Touch Bar keyboards, 'modest' Mac upgrades on Apple's slate for 2017
I'm so conflicted about my feelings about the direction Apple is heading. I'm a decades long Apple fan, but when I look at Amazon's Echo/Alexa and think "that should have been Apple".

The lackluster 2016 product lineup and the emphasis on rebranding itself as a maker of high end luxury appliances is leaving me disillusioned. I was in dire need of a laptop update and unenthusiastically pre-ordered the 15" MacBook Pro (I cancelled a previous preorder after some thought and have considered cancelling this current order on several occasions). By the way, do any of you think that Apple introduce a 15" MacBook Pro WITHOUT touchbar sometime next year at a lower price? That would have appealed to me. I'm not feeling the touchbar (no pun intended)
