I would say "courage" but I am pretty sure I'd get down voted to invisible pretty quick. Monitors last a very long time. I think maybe that wasn't taken into much consideration.

The thing that kills me is how many add-ons you have to buy on day one just to support any peripherals you've got. It's OK that Apple has bet big on USB-C/TB3, but the least thing Apple could have done (this year at least) is throw in a couple of USB-C to USB-A adapters in the box. When I bought a Macbook Pro in 2011, the only thing I needed to buy were some miniDP -> [hdmi/dvi/vga] adapters. The standard set of ports and SD reader covered pretty much everything else I could possibly need. And, it included the 3-prong extension to the power brick, which was indispensible to me -- no client I went to ever gave me a cube to sit at with a power bar that was close enough or had enough room for the brick to plug in properly. Now, that extension is an extra $20.

  > throw in a couple of USB-C to USB-A adapters in the box. How do you expect Apple to sell them for $20 a pop then?
