If they want Silicon Valley pay, then they need to deal w/Silicon Valley costs, e.g. traffic + sitting in traffic

Wonder how it will fly if Apple says OK, but your salary is decreasing by $X

I own 15" 2018 Macbook Pro with butter fly keyboard. How do I claim my payout from $50M ?

Reading the article only folks who had to replace the keyboard can be part of the suit.

Did you follow the lawsuit link, to the previous store and then read the the motion?

I kinda want to get one just to plug up one of the ports Apple was pressured to put in on my 16-inch M1 Max MBP, that I will never, ever use.

If you're a photo or video professional, or even a hobbyist, you NEED the SD card slot. Yes Apple was pressured to put it back in the MacBook Pros, but only because removing it in the first place was incredibly stupid.

At this point if you would never use it, you're an edge case MBP buyer.

Dude, you obviously are out of touch w/what "pros" use. The world has moved on and you sir are stuck in the past.

Pros are not using HDMI let alone HDMI @ 60Hz. Therefore the HDMI port is a business user use case for those that refuses to spend $1K+ to buy a monitor or two.
Pros are not using SD Cards. Not sure about Canon (don't follow them) but Nikon FX, some DX and some mirrorless cameras use CFexpress-Type B and/or XQD Type Memory. Additionally, when a MacBook is used in a professional photo shot to view photos as they are being shot they will use WiFi to send the pictures directly to the MacBook not cards of any type.

When you say PRO you really mean Mom and Dad. HDMI and SD cards are outdated solutions and as useless as wired networks are starting to become.

My guess is that Apple did not include a 4th TB4 port b/c they couldn't due to chip support, etc. That they then decided to include the "legacy" ports to see if it boosts their MS Windows user to Apple user adoption rates. i don't see these ports surviving long-term. Especially, if they don't increase MS Windows to Apple adoption.
