I'm confused: did someone dislike MagSafe? It's gotta be one of my favorite parts of my MacBook. I hear the guys complaining about iron build-up in the port, but they've gotta be in the minority, and a far smaller demographic than, say, parents.

Somebody should make a low profile magsafe charger adapter. That would solve both problems: easy to replace the rare-earth magnet and preserves the utility of magsafe. If you want to charge and use multiple ports, stick the adapter in.

Frankly, I think the one-port decision was wrong, but I doubt Ive and company care.
