The brand new 15 inch MacBook Pro is not only the most interesting (and yes, even a bit controversial) laptop made by Apple in quite a few years: it’s also the most powerful by a long stretch.

The Touch Bar on the new Apple MacBook Pro has recently become fresh new territory for hack-a-tons resulting in some interesting applications, some useful, and some plain gimmicky.

Side-to-side, the MacBook Air and the Pro are $500 apart, price-wise. When looking at the specs, the price difference is as considerable as the difference in the internal hardware of both the aging MacBook Air, and the Pro.

If there is one thing Apple is not known for, is following the herd. In fact, it almost seems that Apple loves to defy virtually every trend set by its competitors, especially Microsoft, even in the wake of such an undisputably amazing product as the Surface Studio.
