    Is there a way to disable the internal keyboard?

    When an external keyboard is attached, is there an EASY way to disable the internal MBP keyboard? I know you can disable the trackpad via System Preferences in the presence of an external pointing device, but there does not seem to be an Apple-provided option to disable the built-in keyboard...

    did apple fix the keyboard reliability issues for 2018?

    So the 2018 MacBook Pros have been out a short while now. Did Apple fix the reliability issues? I specifically don't mean ergonomics (which some love and some dislike) .. but the fact that the keys stop working too often with the 2016 and 2017 models.

However, when I google for MacBook Pro and keyboard I only get to see the top 10,000 marketeers videos and...

    13 inch 2018 Keyboard

    I picked up the 13 inch today. I spent all day typing on a 2017 15 inch. This keyboard feels better---a bit softer. Whereas the 2017 sort of feels like typing on concrete, the 13 inch 2018 has a bit more of a spring. It's still loud---I don't know what Apple considers softer or a different...
