I personally am starting to experience dongle fatigue since I got my new MacBook Pro last year. Recently, I connected my Thunderbolt Ethernet adapter, since the environment in which I live and work, this is the only way to connect to the Net. I am currently running El Capitan, 10.11.6, but its not connecting to the Network. I don't know why, it works in Sierra, which I have dual booting on another partition. Its just, I know if there was a built in Ethernet, this would work without issue. Now I have to sort out why I am unable to connect.
Rumors have also previously suggested Thunderbolt 3, which includes support for 10Gb/s USB 3.1 and DisplayPort 1.2, will be introduced in Apple's most highly anticipated machine due for a refresh, the MacBook Pro, so the code found today is in line with what we'd expect to see.
Because you haven't purchased one?strangely, I had thunderbolt in previous mac book now I have 2 thunderbolts in Macbook but not a single device to plug in? Why is that?
I have been to customer sites like that, though now that I think of it it was not in the current decade. I've even been to customer sites where carrying a USB drive in or out was forbidden. They even prohibited carrying cellphones with cameras.Some of us have a very different use case to you. That is to be expected.
I was at a customer site a few days ago where everything was put on a USB drive and after being scanned by security, we were allowed to copy the files to the target systems which are air-gapped from the rest of the world. No Wifi, no plugging in your drives, no plugging in your MBP to the air-gapped network. My MBP is also scanned by their security people before I can take it inside the restricted areas.
My 2015 15in MBP has just about the right number of connections (apart from Ethernet) for my job. Many places don't have Wifi that visitors can connect to.
any reduction in connectivity will be a big backwards step IMHO.

That goes against pretty much all the evidence we have that they will put a mobile Polaris chip in them, so I'm really not sure what you're basing this on... "making them thinner" is not exactly a solid reason for dismissing the possibility of a dGPU.
Speak to your family doctor, there are treatments for that!I personally am starting to experience dongle fatigue
I was just thinking the marketing guys or whoever comes up with the USB "#" needs to be put up against a wall and shot. Couldn't call it USB 3.2? or how about USB 4 since it's so so much faster than the original USB 3.0 spec. Morons.USB is so confusing. USB 3.1 gen 2... What's next? USB 3.1 gen 2 rev b?
How much do you want to bet it ships with one port
My short memory tells me it took a very long time to provide iMacs with USB 3.0 portsApple's new Macs almost always include support for the latest USB and Thunderbolt specifications to maximize performance
Let's not all get jolly good over some specs here....very atypical of any apple lover...
You guys should've learned by now: never ever buy 1st generation apple product. Wait for 2nd or even 3rd revisions before you spend your hard earned dollars.

… Seems a little presumptuous to make a statement like "code confirms Thunderbolt 3". …
I don't find myself interfacing much with thumb drives, hard drives, or printers using physical connections any more. I used to, and I admit I have worried about how a new connector would affect me. But seeing it put the way you did made me realize how long it has been since I used a wire to connect to a printer.
Nowadays, nearly everything I do is wireless, even in my professional life.
