    Facebook in Safari and battery drain? (tbMBP 13)

    MacBook battery differences

    Is there really that much of a difference between battery life on the MacBook Pro vs MacBook Pro with touch bar. I also want to get the i7 processor on the non-touchbar to boost performance. Will I see a notable battery difference between the touch bar and non touch bar models.

    Is there any usb-c to usb-a (3.1 gen 2) adapters for the Late 2016 MBP?

    Currently on the Apple website they list their usb-c to standard usb-a adapter to only support usb 3.1 gen 1 speeds (5mb/s). Is there any other adapters on the market that support gen 2 speeds (10mb/s) as the usb-c port on the new Macbook Pro 2016 is listed to be gen 2 compatible? Thanks.
