MacBook Pro Gets A Touch Bar

New MacBook Pro Mac is unifying its touchscreen, in a way, with a laptop. The new MacBook Pro will have a Touch Bar which will sit above the keyboard, letting users add emoji to their text or posts, embed applications with a single touch, answer phone calls and even make payments. How so? Touch ID is now integrated into the MAC, secured through a fingerprint scanner on the TouchBar, and letting you make payments directly through Apple Pay. This is a major re-design, and pricing starts at $1,799.

TV App Yes, Apple has reinvented its TV app and named it—TV. Lack of creativity aside, the new app is meant to unify all of your content apps and viewing options into one package.

There's even going to be a single sign-on so you enter id and passwords once, and you're done.

Instead, the goal here is what scientists call "biomatter" that would be found in aquatic areas.
