I can't bring myself to upgrade to the new MBP - I use the accessibility of all the ports far too often.
Maybe I'll wait a year and see what refurb prices are like.

I went for:
The RAM is upgradable via a slot on the back. The HDD is pretty quick so far, can't say I've noticed any drop in performance from my MBA SSD.
- 4.2Ghz i7
- 16GB RAM
- 2TB Fusion Drive (128GB FLASH)
- AMD Radeon Pro 580
I need a laptop when I'm working on-site but if I bought a new MBP then I'd want a new display for home use as my Thunderbolt display is not retina. Speccing the MBP and decent display up came to over £3.5k! if Apple had Target Display Mode working on the new iMac's I'd sell my Macbook Air and get a new MBP but it looks like TDM isn't enabled
I’ve been running beta 1 on both my iPad and iPhone since release there are a few odd bugs but nothing major.I'm a developer but I'm still hesitant. I think I'll wait. Thanks!
I was proper annoyed on Sunday when I was working on it. I had my previous MBP set up really well and had some VMs on it. Prior to returning it I ensured there was a full Time Machine backup done. I initially tried the restore at first turn on but I put in the encryption password wrong, and rather than tell me it was wrong, it just said there were no backups. I couldn't go back to put it in again, only select set up as new Mac. So I did that and tried migration assistant, stuck on loading backups. I then tried from recovery, but it told me it was backed up using a different hardware type so I can't do it from recovery console. Grr. I've never had such issues with Time Machine before.Keyboard between 2016 and 2017 MBP is identical. That's super annoying that you've had these issues up front.
