The only thing true about this rumor is Q4. The rest is bullshit.

It would be fine for function style buttons. You can have nifty things like a volume slider and buttons can change.
That said it does sound kind of gimmicky.
Hopefully Q4 means we get Cannonlake or whatever the SL successor is, and Nvidia's new mobile GPU - even if the lowend model.

Kuo is stupid. The Air is obviously going to die off once the MacBook is mature enough. It's only a matter of time. There will be no "mid-range" model. There will be Consumer and Pro. The Air is just there for now because the MB isn't up to the challenge yet. It hasn't been updated in forever and won't be. If he can't tell the MacBook is the new Air then he is lost. The Air is the new optical-enabled MacBook Pro. Eventually it'll slide to the bottom of the Buy page where no one will ever look. But not until the MacBook gets a drastic price drop to match. That's really its only other problem. It costs more than an Air. But give it a few years and it'll probably come down much like the original Air did. (The original Air cost $1,799US) It took 4 revisions for the drop. (2007-2010)

There will be one key for TouchID, not a strip. The rest of the keyboard will be normal.
Hah, should have added an 'I think'. Just can't see a reason for an entire strip being used.We got some Nostradamus juniors up in here, huh?
The trackpad can do all the things at the bottom currently (except pencil support)Reminds me of what Microsoft showed last year.

I believe this is just poorly worded in the article. By "function keys" I am sure this means brightness, volume etc. the actual function keys (F1-F12) would stay on the keyboard.this sounds like what you would get as a stupid gimmick on a samsung/asus etc laptop. the function keys are a mess anyway since they just activate the shortcuts like adjust brightness etc instead of acting like function keys, not sure what the point of this is.

The Pros are relatively thick and heavy, comparatively speaking. Competitors have caught up and surpassed its weight and dimensions.How much "thinner and lighter" do they need to go? Not sure why they're racing to the bottom like this.
Keep killing that performance, Apple.

It needs to match the Dell XPS line.They are actually still very thin for their class but I agree they're really heavy
Kuo says the device will have a new thinner and lighter design with design cues taken from the 12-inch MacBook,
