That's interesting Alex,

I haven’t used the keyboard a lot but I really don't like that keyboard on the 
new mac ooks,

 No real definition between them like the older style keyboards,

I'll reiterate my response from that thread, in case the OP of this one didn't 
see that one.

I really like the keyboard. It's comfortable after an initial period of 
adjustment, and I find it easier to press keys. Moving to an older Mac now 
feels like more work than I'm used to having to put into typing. The Touch Bar 
is right above the numbers, so you may sometimes touch it by mistake, but I 
very rarely do that. Even if I do, the concepts of iOS apply here, so you have 
to double tap to activate what you touch. This means that touching something 
will speak it, but not activate it. Yes, the trackpad is larger, but I don't 
find that to be much of a problem. Well, not much more than in other Macs, I 
should say. I've always had the problem of accidental touches doing things, 
especially with Trackpad Commander on or VO set to follow the mouse. That's 
annoying, but not much more so on this Mac than any other.
