Fan-less MacBook with Intel CoreM

Daniel, you stole my thoughts! This is exactly what I thought when I knew about it but didn't want to hurdle myself into conclusion. True, USB-C port with multiple functions is great and is making great waves in the market, but then imagine you need it of couple of things to do simultaneously. Minimum two ports should have been there. That need arises very often these days. Let's see how Apple answers to those.
 
Daniel, I didn't expect this out of Apple. Fine, they didn't want to add another port in the MacBook, but they should have offered this adapter as a complementary with the MacBook. They are anyway charging high prices. It would have been better for them to add this price in the MacBook and offer the adapter a complimentary to look good :D
 
Pawan,

Agreed, however in the Apple pursuit of ultimate minimalism adding an adaptor looks kludgy, and not slim, minimal and uncluttered. Plus, they get to charge an extra $79.00 for an expansion cable, after taking ports away from the MacBook.

I kiddingly suggest that Apple remove all keys from the keyboard, except one key, and they can call it the Apple Mono-Key, where you tap Morse code to accomplish all typing. This would be the ultimate, minimalist keyboard, the Apple Mono-Key.
