While I don't own a MacBook with one, I've used it enough over time to form an opinion. I've never seen the Touch Bar as anything amazing. And I've yet to read any review or article that makes the case for it in any real way. If it went away tomorrow, I can't imagine too many people having a problem with that.

I hear more negative, or just neutral, stuff about it than any positive, glowing praise and "it's changed my computer-using life" tales.

It doesn't do anything new or different - or, most importantly, better - than what was already there. It's just a fancier, eyeball-massaging implementation that looks neat in product photos. But I've always viewed it more as a "look what we can do!" thing than any sort of "OMG!" game-changer (because it isn't).

But, as always, I'm open to having my mind changed on that; so tee up and take your best shot if you think you can.

Good luck.
