I am so tired of my new Macbook pro 2018, which cost me around $ 3000 and which has been either in repair or getting dust on it at home. Since I still use my old macbook pro (very effectively and without major problems, but the usual tear-and-wear), I would love to just replace all the garbage surrounding my new machine and put it into the old case. Now I realize, that there are some major problems concerning the logic board’s ports being just usb-c and the ones on the old “normal” ones – also I have no idea, if there aren’t any physical hindrandces – which there should not be, as the new macbbo pro is uselessly smaller than the old one. Of course I absolutely want to keep my old keyboard. So has anybody tried to do this yet and helpful advice?
Sorry just not possible ;-{ The newer 2016 and onward to the current 2019 systems use a very different design and the parts are just not interchangeable. The good news is Apple is changing direction with the keyboard back to the scissor design in coming systems. I would recommend you return or sell your system and hold out for one of the coming systems. FYI Your not alone!
