What does everyone think of the new MacBook? Is this the future of portable computing or design taken to the extreme. It only had one port for everything. Even a A1200 is more expandable.

Hey Bill,
Personally, I don't "get" the new Macbook at all. It's the same price, slower, less capable, and -- essentially -- just an iPad with a keyboard.
Not sure how I feel about the "USB C" port thing either, but it is in keeping with Apple's design (ala the mac mini and Mac Pro) to "minimize the connections into the box", even though that means you'll have a dozen cables and connectors running to external devices like hard drives and power bricks..
Given the option, I'd much rather buy a 2012 Macbook Pro which is at least expandable with RAM and hard drive/SSD changes.
