Many folks in the Mac community are nonplussed with the new MacBook Pro's, and VERY critical of the prices.
I was looking to find a replacement for my 2010 MacBook Pro (still doing fine), but when I saw the entry-level price for the 4-port touch-bar model was $1,800 -- no thanks. (Aside: the "ports" are all USB-c, to use anything else one will need to buy adapter dongles)
I'll probably pick up a closeout 2015 model, which has more usable ports (regular USB3), and a MUCH nicer price: $1,199.
