Arrr, the cursed Touch Bar be returnin’, but it be lookin’ more scallywag than a barnacle-covered ship!

Arrr, matey! ENIAC be craftin' a magical touch bar, the Flexbar, fit fer Macs and a whole treasure trove o' other contraptions ye can conjure! Aye, it be the finest gadget fer swabbin' the decks of yer digital seas!

Ahoy mateys! Gather 'round as I be spin’n a yarn 'bout the resurrected Touch Bar, now dubbed the Flexbar, by the merry crew at Eniac! This contraption be akin to a lost treasure, seekin' a home on yer Mac, iPad, or even yer Windows ship! Arrr, Apple first launched the Touch Bar in 2016, a fine addition fer swabbin' the decks of yer keyboard, only to toss it overboard in 2022, like a scallywag’s rum! But lo and behold, Eniac be bringin' it back—though it be lookin' like a thick plank perched atop yer keyboard!

With a shiny 10-inch OLED display and haptic feedback, it promises to be as lively as a parrot at a pirate’s feast! But fear not, 'tis not the sleek integration of the original; nay, it sticks up like a crow's nest observin' the horizon! Why, if ye be hankerin' for touch, wouldn’t ye just grab an iPad instead? Eniac thinks they be onto somethin’, claimin' the old Touch Bar didn’t be flawed, it just needed more rum—er, I mean development!

For $119, ye can claim yer own Flexbar come 2025. But alas, I doubt true MacBook Pro swashbucklers will trade their sails for this clunky piece of hardware. Aye, it may find a home on other vessels, but it be far from the elegant beauty of the original! So, what say ye, shall we hoist the sails or let this treasure sink?
