As others have stated, the working world works on HDMI. I’ve never been to a conference room (and I’ve been to a sh**ton) that has a USB-c plug up. I don’t doubt it’s coming or that it’s common in Silicon Valley. But the real world can’t change interface connections constantly. Apple jumped the gun for sure. And they are tucking their tails. That said, there is honor in fixing a mistake.

Hmmm - might be enough for me to upgrade from my 15’ mid 2012 rMBP - 14’ might be an acceptable compromise between screen size & cost!

It’s nice to see Apple return to functional. I’m still running a mid-2012 as well. Awesome laptop but showing it’s age now. The post 2015 MacBooks just suck IMO. The entire world uses HDMI ports, let’s get rid of ours..... morons. They are good laptops but the 2015 was the last best. Looks like that will change. 

Had this in my Samsung S5 work phone. Over rated and kills battery life. Turned it off, among other relatively useless features.

Samsung will probably do the same. But at least their customers had >5W bricks...... Plus they have USB C cables now....

Its moronic to think these moves are anything but boosting profit margins. 

Moronic was exactly what came to mind reading this post. 

Delusional much? You were you referring to yourself?
