That USB type-C strategy is for a laptop that is thinner than the Macbook Air. I don't think they will pull that trick for the normal Macbook Pro.

What trick? Of course they'll add USB type-C to MBP.

If you ask whether they'll keep regular USB or thunderbolt, perhaps but just for a few releases more. E.g. both could be gone by 2018.

That said, MPB will of course have > 1 USB C ports.

The trick - having only one connector. For normal macbooks they will probably have multiple USB-C (for power and other stuff), maybe one USB-B, a card reader, video etc.

What seems to be happening is that we are re-inventing PCI.
