Apple just announced minor updates to the MacBook Pro—what it *didn't* announce is that it killed the last remaining non-touchbar version of the Pro. RIP. pic.twitter.com/zYkTiUx4sA

The best part of the updated 13" MacBook Pro today is we can finally stop saying "MacBook Escape" https://t.co/NIaVaY8za8

(It appears to be gone from the store.)
riddle me this: is it better to pay $200 more over the base MacBook Air to get the MacBook Pro’s better processor + brighter screen, or use that same $200 to get 16GB of RAM in an Air https://t.co/LukHlLHpxt

Most interesting stuff to me:
- Price on Air drops by $100 (Starts at $1,099)
- Both have the new updates to the Butterfly keyboard
- Entry level MacBook Pro now has Touch Bar
Me: Freakin’ @Apple. My MacBook Air is barely 6 months old and they update the line and make me feel obsolete.

Also Me: Stoked to see Apple continually updating things with “Mac” in their names. W00t!
