Just make sure you look at the aggregate as well . The touch bar is definitely jot a 400 $ feature , but the TB version comes with better processor and those extra ports . I would channel some of the money into getting the i 7 on the nonTB model and yours will outperform the more expensive base TB 13 that I have . <| sep |> My bad I made a post a minute ago I thought this was a response to that lol <| sep |> Everybody has always hated the contract . The bad possession metrics were known at the time among the enthusiast crowd we ' ll say , for the sports radio listeners he was pitched as a solidifying presence decent allround veteran . He played we ' ll say okay in his half season prior to the extension but we were bone dry when it comes to D prospects at the time and needed a top two pair guy and paid him like one , but he ' s played like an AHL ' er ever since and everybody has since panned the contract for the garbage it is .
