Exactly. A "Pro" laptop for use by "Pro"fessionals needs I/O like gig-e, USB3, USBC, HDMI, Thunderbolt, SD reader and an excellent DAC for the headphone jack. And I still miss the 17" macbook pro :(

Man the 17" pro was like a table lol. It was a beast though, the screen at the time was top notch

I still do all my work on a 17" MBP. It's 6 years old now, and I fear the day I will need to replace it.
