Macs stay current for a long while, and my 2012 is still going strong. Judging how it satisfies my performance criteria it' likely only half way through its eight year or so life. But the Touch bar is a feature I find to be something that may transform the ergonomic aspects of my editing workflow in such a profound way (if after market software companies implement it with the forethought and eye towards details that Apples native apps seem to have received) that I will be there, hard earned cash in hand, buying this machine, for that one feature, three or four months after release. Of course I never but that fast, it's normally wise to wait for version two, BUT, I've not been this inspired by the workflow possibilities of something new - well, honestly, since I first discovered Photomechanic, and it's sublime ways, way back when.
I vote that all of you gentlemen, with a refined taste for the good things in (editing) life, which you obviously have my virtue of your good taste in using Photomechanic in the first place - that you all take up a collection and purchase for Kirk one of the first 15" models off the line. He surely will see the light, and burn the midnight oil coding. Yeah. Think of it as a small investment in your future efficiency and happiness!

If you buy it, Kirk will build, right? Just like in the movies. It shall be epic!
