Apple's new MacBooks, announced, have been upgraded with force-sensitive trackpads.

Becomes the first piece of third-party software to make use of the new technology. Users can press harder for thicker lines Inklet users will be able to use a stylus on their 2015 MacBook trackpads to manipulate and draw over images on screen. Users can highlight the section of the image they want to work on in a shape that corresponds to the trackpad itself. Drawing normally creates a light stroke, but more pressure makes for thicker lines, allowing the stylus to work like a digital paintbrush.
