Yeah petrus, I wondered if it’s more to do with your not use to the older mac keyboard, but then you used windows computers / notebooks before your mac so I can only think your picking up the butterfly better than those of us that don’t like them.
Great work and I’ll be coming for typing lessons.

I've had my Mac for almost two years now, and I've never made so many typos as I do with the butterfly keyboard. I kept thinking I would get used to it, but I haven't. I still hate this stupid keyboard.

But I think the butterfly keyboard is the best I’ve ever had. I can’t comment on the start up chime as I’ve only had a Mac for about 6 months or so. But it would still be nice to have one.

I have a similar model, but the 3.1 I5 processor and 16 GB of RAM. It's the one with the Touch Bar and 4 USB C ports. I haven't had any problems with my model although, like you, many don't like the feel of the butterfly keys, and some are stuck on USB A ports, of which the MBP's have none. Battery life is good, but not excellent. It's nice and light and handles processing big jobs well. If the price is right, I'd go for it. Later...

My wish for you is that someone returned these machines because they'd heard there shouldn't be a boot chime any longer! <grin> Janina PS: I looked at the 2017 Air machines still available today. I'm disappointed. It looks to me like the only advantage of leaving my 2014 Air for a 2017 model is a measly 4Gb more RAM. That's ain't enough today, imo. I'm back to looking at the small Thinkpad X1 Carbon machines for laptops. I realize that would leave me out of the Apple eco system. I am finding the new minis very attractive, so perhaps I'm thinking transitionally. You all have gotten under my skin enough so that I don't really want to leave Apple out of my life. Heck, Safari has become my favorite gui browser in recent months. Go figure. Best, Janina Simon Fogarty writes: Hi List, Just wondering if anyone on the list has a 2017 13.3" Mac book pro with 2.3GHz I5 prodessor? I'm just looking at one of these model machines from the apple refurbished devices and wondered why such a nice sounding machine would have been returned to apple? I just wondered if this might be a problematic model as there are 3 of them showing in the NZ apple website refurbished list. Cheers for any information.
