Intel is a lot of what's wrong with the new MacBook Pro

I knew something like this had to be going down for Apple to punt on new Apple monitors.

These, of course, were "Skylake" Intel chips in the "new" MBPro, laden with limitations, so this is not the real MacBook Pro.

Mac Pros and Mac Minis will also need to wait for Apple designed chips: iMacs should also improve with new processors, hopefully first half of next year at the earliest.

Apple is being criticized like it hasn't been in a very long time for this computer design.

It would have never seen a launch.

16 GB RAM capacity is also an Intel problem, along with nearly everything else that is wrong with the computer.
