Hi Lee,
I agree with everything you say here…

was asleep before I put it in my leather briefcase. Usually when I leave the

I went ahead and bought the new 2016 15” MBP with touchbar. Here are my
observations:
While I use it for business, as Lee stated, my demands on it are varied. For
example, I’m also a musician and use Apple’s Logic recording software, which is
very complex and can be demanding on CPU cycles.

I logged into my iCloud account via Safari today and it told me someone near
Indianapolis was trying to log in at the same time. I took it as the
geolocation feature was just off its game today. I did not change my PW, and
haven’t experienced any interruption.
