It seems quite a few people have been turned off by the recent mac book pro fiasco as well.

Fiasco?

> Fiasco?

I don't know about the parent; but, as an MBP owner for almost 15 years, for me "fiasco" means "best-in-class keyboard and trackpad have become second- to third-rate." (Most complaints are focussed on the keyboard, and the Touch Bar's insistence on interfering with touch typing muscle memory; but I've found the trackpad has its own weird set of problems, at least on my machine.)

I think my old 2010 mbp (stolen in 2013) was probably my single favorite touchpad and keyboard for any laptop before or since. My current (late 2014) is okay, just not quite as good, and I don't like the newer ones at all... I use a physical keyboard at my desk and reducing the travel more and more just irritates me and slows me down.

May take a look at the Huawei Matebook X Pro, or it's successor next year. (Worries about chinese spying aside).

We clearly have different definitions for the word fiasco.
