Apple's MacBook Pro event in Images

Apple's MacBook Pro event was jaw-dropping and awe-inspiring for some while other found it boring, bland and pointless. Still then it was easy to notice how Apple who is currently struggling with sales, put up a brave face and ignored the best-seller the MacBook Air. In fact, it was easy to conclude that Apple may soon be phasing out the old model with the recently launched 2016 MacBook now being its standard MacBook offering. Whether you are angered with Apple that a MacBook now costs an arm and a leg, or you are just glad to see a new layer of touch-based interaction on macOS here's how the event panned out.[caption id="attachment_344246" align="aligncenter" width="640"] Visitors arrive for an Apple media event in Cuptertino.
