I think the keyvboard of the mac book is crap, to flat and very little 
definition between keys,

I found it difficult to use.
But as I said that is me, and my thoughts.

  What is wrong with the keyboard. I didn’t notice anything that makes it 
unusable for the blind. I thought it was a nice keyboard. I just thought the 
Air or Pro had better specifications for what I wanted at the time.

No way,

Really, we should be amaking it known that it's not a great keyboard for the 
blind / vi community or at least that is my opinion.

Yeah it's a nice device,

So long as you don't want to do a lot of power useage, it's a good machine.

Starting at a 1.1GHz processor and that being a mobile processor it's not 
powerfull but works fine for everyday web surfing and word processing

I didn't really try it for along time as I found it at least for me it had one 
major issue and that is the keyboard sucks the big one.

The keys are flat and there is next to no definition between the keys like in 
the mac book air or pro however the keyboard is like that to save space and 
make a thiner / lighter machine in total

As for the USB C connector, so long as you have adapters to connect things your 
fine otherwise your limited to saving to a small drive space and wifi 
connectivity

And its over priced.

The mac book air is a more powerfull processor, same amount of ram and HDD or 
SSD storage depending on what you buy and it is a cheaper product but to me a 
better product, unless they really change the next air I'll go on with that 
otherwise I'll go MBPro for power however I'd rather have the 11 inch air for 
size.

Hope that helps..

Hi:
Has anyone tried the new Macbook 12 inch? If so, how does the moble processor 
handle VO? What do you think of the new style of keyboard?
