Wow, I only just realised (using Laura’s five-year-old hand-me-down MacBook Pro) that when you use Keynote on a MBP that has a touch bar, you basically get your presenter display on it.

Wow, I only just realised (using Laura’s five-year-old hand-me-down MacBook Pro) that when you use Keynote on a MBP that has a touch bar, you basically get your presenter display on it. That’s amazing. Especially given you don’t always have the luxury of one at smaller events and/or if you’re live coding but also have slides.

Damn… wish they hadn’t discontinued those now

@aral Except for a few cases like this, my Touch Bar has been unused. Apple invested so much in it, and it noticeably bumped up the end user price, but was so underwhelming. Lack of physical escape a mistake. Lack of haptic was a mistake. Inability to find the keys on the bar by touch was also an issue. We all just wanted something like a mini Lebedev keyboard up there.
