I see lots of people in this thread mentioning this, but am confused. I've never seen a lighting port on an Apple computer- only on iphones and ipads, and the cables that come with those are USB-C on the other end. Haven't all Apple computer accessories been USB-C for almost a decade now?

- _yb2s 2y agoThanks! That seems like a minor issue because in both cases you still use usb-c on the computer end. However it will certainly be nice to not need to have 3 different kinds of cables, and have everything just take usb-c at some point. Although I'll bet they'll have a new usb connector right about the time the usb-a and lightning devices finally start to disappear.
