Apple reportedly planning to revive the MagSafe charging standard with the next lot of MacBook Pros

Patching the hole in the walled garden?

Cynical part of me things Apple will be removing the Thunderbolt / USB-C charging capability. Can't have the suckers/consumers (of whom I'm one) able to buy third party charging.

I wouldn't mind, but docking 'universal' docking stations running off Thunderbolt/USB-C have been a most excellent addition to my hot desking (and more recently home working) world. I can arrive at the client site, with nothing more than my laptop, plug in and go. Doesn't matter I run a Mac. It would really suck to lose that.
