It isn't going to be very 'Pro' with no ports other than USB-C, and the removal of the MagSafe is absolutely stupid beyond words.
Apple can seriously get stuffed.

Try to resell it to the Apple store when you buy your new one... Then you'll know the value of itGuess my resale value on my 2012 is still good ... so there's that ....?
I'm glad I am in dongle heaven, a dongle for USB-A ports, dongle for networking, a dongle for hdmi, a dongle for converting usb-c to magsafe, dongle for sd card which adds to my current dongle for DVD drive for when I need to convert kids movies to iPad format. I'm also looking forward to a potential dongle for my headphones if they take away the 3.5mm jack to make space for a bigger battery.
Wonder what I'm going to do with my 64GB USB drive that stick out only a few mm and my nifty mini drive that doesn't stick out at all.
I just wish they added a dongle for adding ram if they still need to solder the ram inside the case.
Maybe I need a permanent dongle that glues to the bottom of the case giving it a bump like in their battery case for the iPhone that adds all the missing ports back in.
I've already skipped the iPhone 7 because I want to listen and charge at the same time. Maybe will need to skip this one and get a windows laptop again.
Why can't Apple give 2 usb c ports and 2 usb a ports and do the switch gradually? It's going to take more than 3 years for switching over from usb a to c and by that time it might be time for a new laptop, all that pain of no usb a for no gain.
Only time will tell.
Apple sells an adaptor for that for only € 29,99. Their computers are so "modern" and "advanced" you have either to buy new peripherals or adapters. That's one way for Apple to get more traffic to their stores.
Yes, we had the courage to remove this port and that port, we've gone from 8 ports down to 5? ports and made 4 of them the same. That leaves some space to add in a bigger battery.
They did a new demo at NAB. It's very much alive and well. The creative summit for fcpx is worth attending if you've never been. Last year we went to Apple and they showed us how Focus was edited. Hopefully they do an NDA and show more of the new FCPX under development

Thanks Barry! That's encouraging. I'd love to attend but I live in Amsterdam, it's a bit of a stretch to book a flight to Cupertino in a week from now.
Apple is
secretive (whisper: every rumor site got every detail of to be introduced apple gear months ahead and even competitors are months/years ahead). Somehow Apple still thinks its the most technologically advanced company in the world. Apple still thinks it can compete with Google Now, Maps and every category they're in.Someone tell Cook that they're falling behind in every category and that any investments to turn the tide is Too little Too late. Their escape (project Titan) is also falling apart. But who will trust any self driving car depending on Maps and Siri
?
I'd love to go
especially since this is on the agenda DeAnza Theater | Apple Campus: General Address: The Future: Final Cut Pro X
Yes ... and then most of us could finally say Goodbye to Apple.
Guess your are right. However, such a long wait and no event... It sends a message that they don't care much about the Mac line anymore or at least not more than their watch.
The rumoured removal of the SD card slot is a damned disgrace. Apple are really taking the piss now. First the DVD drive and the USB ports and then the 3.5mm jack on the iPhone 7 and now this. As a videographer the SD card slot is very handy as I use it to upload videos from my GoPro. Oh well bloody Apple will expect fellow photographer/videographers and anyone else to buy a separate device which is more stuff to carry about.
"The 17" iMac Portable" would be great,
but I'm quite sure Apple prefers selling you 1 notebook + 1 desktop instead..
But their 'desktop', the iMac, is essentially a laptop with a stand attached. There's nothing truly 'desktop' about it (in the traditional sense of the word).
Honestly, given the long refresh rate, it almost feels as though Apple is waiting for some older tech to depreciate before dropping it altogether in favour of newer ones.
This is obvious, otherwise margins would be thinner with the latest tech
Unless they put a CF-card reader in there I will still need a separate device..
BUT I do use the SD-card slot as an extra internal drive so it will be a great loss if they remove it..
You can do it yourself with a tube of glue. You have to power to decide which ports you no longer want to use
If it stands on top of a desk = desktop
But yeah, I know. It´s a stationary laptop with a bigger screen.
Theres a difference between taking out a port and never having one.
Most cameras on the market use SD cards. Even my 70D uses SD.
Tim's announcement of the new MacBook Pro:
We know people hate to re-charge their MacBook Pros! Thus we did the courageous thing: Apple got rid of the power connector. Once the battery runs empty, you just head to the nearby Apple Store to purchase a new MacBook Pro (and Apple will recycle your old MacBook Pro free to charge).
