The two new MacBooks introduced today, the MacBook Air and a 13-inch MacBook Pro, appear to have the same much maligned butterfly switch keyboards. Though they switches have been redesigned to be less prone to allowing debris under the keys, they have not been changed to the previous keyboards that worked well.

I'm hoping the delay for the new 16-inch MacBook Pro rumored to come out later this year (it was originally due out earlier this year, according to the rumor mill) was because Apple is discontinuing the bad keyboards and reverting to the old design.

Unfortunately, with today's new MacBook Pro, Apple appears to have doubled down on the Touch Bar that almost no one seems to like and much add to the cost of the laptop substantially. The Touch Bar is now included across the entire MacBook Pro line, like it or not.
