News Apple 'fixes' MacBook Pro keyboard in mid-year refresh

They're eveidently so confident in their fix that the 2019 models are already part of the keyboard replacement program.

EDIT:

'40% faster*', presumably to compensate for the [up to] 40% performance hit apple's spectredownmeltwhatever mitigations reportedly cause.


*for the 30 seconds it can maintain those speeds without throttling

 

No sane person ever:

"But but but it allowed them to make the laptops 0.4mm thinner, so it was worth all the trouble"

 

Don't know if anyone else watches Loius Rossman but he nails it about Apple in more recent times:

 

yeah, he is quality

 

Well, at least they don't intend to stonewall customers for two years with "our keyboard is fine, you're just using it wrong" accusations like the initial crapstorm.

 

No doubt there is a myriad other glaring design flaws in the new model that they can do it with...

 

iFixit are unimpressed
