This is of no benefit for things like mice or keyboards, of which there are probably hundreds of millions of functioning USB A devices out there, and are still widely sold with USB A. The MacBook design also took out ports that weren't traditionally USB, like Ethernet and monitor ports. Although my newerish one did put in an HDMI, in contrast to one I used years ago that was only USB C. And again, this was like a 2015 laptop but they are still making USB A stuff today I just got a Microsoft Surface Laptop Studio at work and it only has 2 USB-C ports, a headphone jack, and Microsoft's proprietary Surface Connect port. If you want Ethernet or USB-A, you need a dock. You want to connect a monitor? Too bad, even the dock doesn't have any video ports, you have to buy a USB-C adapter. Luckily our old Dell D6000 docks work just fine through the USB port and they support 3 monitors at once (two DP and 1 HDMI). --- Minutus cantorum, minutus balorum, Minutus carborata descendum pantorum. <cite>captpackrat posted [p:976867016] in Macs are s...
