However, two out of four things mentioned have been removed from new models since the first retina came out in mid 2012 (DVD/RJ45) simply because they are nearly as thick as the entire device.
RCA out hasn't ever been in a MacBook to my knowledge.
The only port that made absolutely no sense to remove was the SD card slot (even if I personally never use mine).
- bootload 10y ago"RCA out hasn't ever been in a MacBook to my knowledge." You're right, got confused with 3.5mm jack. Removed the 3.5mm jack. What about the current USB confusion? ...and yes mid 2012. Since when is a thiner laptop ever really been a TOP priority for programmers? I would have though it would be power: processor, battery life, HD, then weight, etc. For manufacturers shaving off millimetres/grams off each machine translates to savings. For users thiner may be lighter, a trade off with being tactile. Wonder what Braun would tackle this?
- mciancia 10y agoBut 3.5mm jack is still present on all Apple computers
- slededit 10y agoPeople don't hear that "IPhone 7 TM" removed the headphone jack. Just "Apple doesn't have headphone jacks anymore".
- bootload 10y agoeven on the new MBPR? (I'm only interested in MBPs here) if so wrong (again) but the idea of lack of peripherals / power for ^me^ is a problem.
- mciancia 10y agoYes It's not that hard to check it yourself btw
