    Removing things is also innovation

    Or do you still miss the VGA connector? A floppy disk drive? DVD drive in a laptop?

      I still use most of these regularly, because I don’t waste money on anti-green Apple products.

      Those were replaced with better tech that did the exact same thing. VGA - DVI - HDMI - Display Port.

      I don’t know about you, but I still have one DVD hooked up. Because I have the option to. Not because the motherboard maker took away all the SATA ports and told me I had to buy a special proprietary dongle or plug to fit the replacement.
