How the new MacBook Pros compare with Microsoft's Surface Book i7
Apple and Microsoft both announced new laptops aimed at professionals this week.
Apple's got its new 13- and 15-inch MacBook Pros with their fancy new Touch Bars and Touch ID sensors, and Microsoft got its supercharged Surface Book i7.
It's funny how Apple has resisted touchscreens and, now, with the Touch Bar, it's finally relented and added one (even if it's just a strip) to its most powerful laptops. Meanwhile, the Surface Book has been happily rocking a touchscreen with Surface Pen support for two generations now.
