New Mac support?
Recent rumors suggest Apple added support for the new MacBook Pro in the recent macOS Sierra update too. New Macs are expected to be announced at an event on October 27 at the company’s headquarters in Cupertino.
The long-rumored new MacBook Pro is expected to get some design tweaks. The most notable being an OLED touch bar that replaces the function row of keys. The power button may also get Touch ID capabilities.
