MacBook Pro Disliked
I'm currently on a late 2016 MacBook Pro, 13", with a Touch Bar. I deeply regret the MBP - 1: dongle life, 2: the lack of a physical escape key makes coding in emacs very difficult, 3: the keys on the butterfly keyboard are constantly too loose or totally stuck, 4: so much beach ball.
