The single-port MacBook provoked fear and loathing ahead of shipment. Apple had lost its mind. It was shipping a chiclet keyboard. One port? A new standard?

I bought a MacBook because I was ready to take the challenge of eating someone else’s dog food, in the industry’s parlance. As a long-time Mac user and tech reviewer, I’ve owned and used dozens of Mac models, some of them severely compromised from the get-go and others perfect delights across years of use. My favorite before the 2011 MacBook Air that the new MacBook replaced was a PowerBook Duo 210, about which colleague Christopher recently penned an encomium (http://www.macworld.com/article/2897715/the-new-macbook-is-cool-but-the-powerbook-duo-was-cooler.html).</p><p class="jumpTag"><a href="/article/2920702/embracing-the-new-macbook-lifestyle-it-works-adapters-and-all.html#jump">To read this article in full or to leave a comment, please click here[/url]</p></section></article>
