Apple has spoiled its own surprise launch by shipping an update to macOS Sierra that includes an image of the new MacBook Pro the company is expected to release on 27 October.

The picture, which will apparently show up as part of the instructions for using Apple Pay on the new devices, shows a new touch bar along the top of the computer, which replaces the function and escape keys and power button on existing MacBook Pros. It was first reported by tech news site MacRumors.
