Kind of sad that this whole thread is blaming him for any kind of problem somebody has with Apple hardware, I find it hard to believe that Ives oder anybody else took those decisions (USB C, thinness) without a clear sense of strategic direction and a very good business reason.
People are openly wondering if the next MBP will go back to having things like USB-A ports. As if! We've already bought the new dongles, dang it! I'd be surprised if the next round of PC's doesn't follow Apple's lead, just like the phones did when Apple removed the audio port.
