    1. Up-to-date appropriate CPU
    2. Space for both a SSD and a backup HD, easily user replaceable/up-gradable
    3. Expandable memory by user
    4. More than 1 USB/Thunderbolt 3 port
    5. plus 1 USB 3.0 type A on front for charging/syncing/transferring without having to reach around to the back or buy a hub
    6. Compact, but not small & thin just to be small & thin,  It's a desktop computer !

    Just a user up-gradable, stylish, basic computer that runs Mac OS.  Can't a Trillion $ company sell just one model like this? 
    1. Yes, which includes the option for getting the same Intel Core i7 the 13" MacBook Pro with Touch Bar can get.
    2. How about an m.2 NVMe SSD (or soldered-on SSD) and a 2.5" SSD, or have 2 m.2 NVMe SSD, user replaceable, instead of a 2.5" SSD?
    3. Yes.
    4. Replace the two MiniDisplay ports with two Thunderbolt 3, USB-C ports. Also, update the HDMI port to 2.1, the current version.
    5. It would be nice but I do not see them doing this.
    6. The current size is fine with me.
