Hi Simon. I like the idea of having a CD/DVD reader, though I hardly ever use that.
My 2013 Macbook Pro has a decent keyboard as the keys are quite distinctive. I use an external full size keyboard because it has a full numeric keypad and it has about 3 USB'S. It's very sturdy and feels so nice and smoove. I was only thinking of jumping up to something a little fresher and of course, I'll still get a couple of hundred for my old one. Very best wishes. P.S Simon. We are all very impressed with NZ over here for it's response to the virus. ----- Original Message ----- From: Simon A Fogarty To: macvisionaries@googlegroups.com Sent: Saturday, June 27, 2020 4:41 AM Subject: RE: whitch Macbook pro Andy, Why do you need a pro? I have been playing around with the 2020 mac book air recently and I really liked it. It has the finger print sensor but no touch bar, 2 USB_C ports on the left hand edge, And the new keyboard replacement to the butterfly keyboard. Otherwise a great little device. Personally I can’t see what the average person would need the pro for now days.

Thinking of upgrading my Macbook Pro 2013 to a new machine. I need a nice full keyboard with sizable buttons and as many USB's as I can get. I hate the sound of the Tuch Bar that took over from the F keys. I'll probably also get an external full size keyboard. Any ideas on which model to look for. Very best wishes. Andy.
