The Great Laptop Stagnation – 500ish Words

Does anybody have positive comments on TouchBar of the new MacBook Pro? So far I have read at best neutral reviews. This is very different from touchpad on new Macs. All reviews consistently have been praising it and that matches my personal experience.

I am also saddened by the lack of price drop in laptops over the past few years. The devices I saw for around $1k last year is still around $1k.

On top of that, I saw some intel Pentium processors in some WalMart laptop. Whats happening? they found some processors while cleaning a warehouse or something? I wonder if all the laptop makers got inside a room and decided not to compete as much anymore. Not at least they sell the stuff they already have.
