After four years of iterative spec-bumps, October 2016 finally saw Apple unveil a brand new MacBook Pro. Well actually, two new MacBook Pros. Much like buses, we waited for one and two came along at once. As there is only a 15in Touch Bar MacBook Pro and...
You want the Touch Bar MacBook Pro. We do, everyone does. But if you want a MacBook Pro this year, the decision is less simple, and weirdly so. At £1,449, the base MacBook Pro isn't a by definition ‘cheap' alternative, it is merely ‘cheaper'. If you want...
