lol if you think apple's answer to stupid eu standards will be something that changes its industrial design or doesn't charge europeens more for the privilege of meeting the standard

They may not give gently caress about the Swiss but laws are laws. I doubt the Swiss are losing any sleep over watch sales.

2015 MBP has the same ports as a 2010 MBP, an the only proprietary one is the charger, so I guess if when you say 'regularly' you mean 'less often than every 5 years'

they make more than just mbps. if you really want to make a big deal about denying a provable fact, go for it, maybe it'll help you sleep at night. but apple has left a trail of dead proprietary connectors behind them like blown roses since the mid-80s, so them doing it again is not surprising or even contentious.
