Isn't this the same argument people used when the Mac ditched the floppy, and then again when they ditched the CD-ROM drive?
- jjoonathan 9y agoAnd PS2 ports and phone jacks and ethernet ports, yes
- 51Cards 9y agoEthernet ports are still a pain to not have for us. I have staff that travel to sites and need to test hard lines to see if they are live and most of them forget their dongle from time to time. Life was easier when they had built in ports. I do realize for the average user though this is a non-issue.
- m_mueller 9y agoIMO for MBPs there is no such thing as an ‘average user’. That kinda user buys Chromebooks nowadays. It’s almost all professionals and students with different fields and usecases, and almost everyone is inconvenienced by at least one of Apple’s recent choices, be it lack of USB—A, SD, HDMI, mini-DP, magsafe, more RAM, Ethernet, upgradable components or even optical drives. Edit: Oh and also lack of CUDA support i.e. NVIDIA cards.
