  "account": "Apple showcased its new touchscreen MacBook Pro alongside music software Logic Pro during a livestream event at Apple Tower Theatre in downtown Los Angeles. British musician Labrinth, known for his work with HBO's Euphoria and the group LSD, was enlisted to compose a brand new song on the device. The \"Labrinth Live on Mac\" session, running for nearly four hours, began on November 4 at 8 p.m. Pacific time, allowing viewers to watch as Labrinth interacted with the MacBook Pro's display to adjust Logic Pro's mixer controls. A multi-track arrangement of the song was visible onscreen throughout the performance. Audience members were encouraged to submit questions during the event, with the completed track set to release on Apple Music the following week. Apple had previously hinted at this collaboration via a white box on TikTok, prompting fans to keep it closed until the event took place.

The MacBook Pro with PROLED XDR Display comes in 14-inch and 16-inch models, powered by M5 Pro or M5 Max chips, and will be available starting November 6 with pricing beginning at $2,899 for the 14-inch version and $3,399 for the 16-inch model.",
