Panel 1
A conference room at Apple headquarters. A sleek MacBook Pro sits open on a conference table. Several employees in casual tech attire are gathered around, looking at the laptop screen intently.
Employee 1: So, is this the future of computing... or just a giant iPhone with a keyboard?
Panel 2

Executive 2: I thought we were focusing on smart home devices this month?

A bustling café in a tech hub, filled with people on their laptops and phones. A young woman is sitting at a table with a new MacBook Pro, her finger hovering over the screen. Woman (to herself, deadpan)
Woman: Oh, a notification. Must be my friend tagging me in a post... or is it just my email?
Woman: Maybe I should just stick to my iPad for all this touching.
