This is very bad news for me. On the one foot, NB 624s are the only sneaker-type shoes that come in a width that accommodates my misshapen feet. On the other, I’m reluctant to add to the CEO’s profits. Recommend another brand, please.

Decision, decisions: is a touchbar on an M2 MacBook Pro worth €100? That’s the price difference from an M2 MBA, and the MBP has a slightly smaller screen and weighs 160 gm more. I’ve never seen anyone rave about a touchbar. So, what’s the deal? All thoughts welcome.
