MacBook Pro with Touch Bar today it is put face to face with the first Apple laptop, or Macintosh Portable, which was launched in September of 1989. Initially received with enthusiasm, this laptop later proved that it does not offer as many benefits as the world expected, especially in terms of battery autonomy, weight being also a problem.
With an initial price of 7300 dollars, the Macintosh Portable was dedicated to an extremely narrow group of potential Apple customers, having a value almost 6 times higher than that of a current model. Of course, at that time we were talking about technologies that were arriving on the market for the first time and it was normal for them to cost so much, so the difference is normal.
In the video clip below you can see what each of the two Apple laptop models looks like, so you can see where things started and where they ended up.
