Last year's model was alright, but this year's basic model is not. Problem is with ports available. Only 2 ports. Personally I think that it was not so clever move from Apple to put only USB-C ports in new mode, but put only 2 of them in basic model is even worse.

Concern over a lack of ports was part of the reason I went ahead and got the 2015 models when I updated this year. I knew some killer feature might be there but honestly the touch bar isn't that killer to me. I'd rather have the ports.
