This. The lack of key travel is going to make typing uncomfortable. For a machine targeted towards light users, i.e. web-surfing, word-processing, it is NOT good.

Customers care a lot about specs, especially if it has a premium price.
For me, Apple's obsession of thinness went overboard on this one.

If the Air had gotten a new screen, I would've bought in a second. Glad that I bought the 2014 rMBP instead or the wait would have been for nothing.
Just make sure you don't wanna do more than internet and some document typing or you may find yourself disappointed.
