I've owned every Macbook/Powerbook from the Titanium up until the Mid-2014 MBP (while I was at Matasano, I got every refresh; on my own, I try to make machines last). My 2014 has HDMI. But then: the new one has an HDMI+USBC+USB dongle.
On the one hand: I miss MagSafe.
On the other hand: I will not miss the stack of old frayed MagSafe cables I've collected over the years, and am hopeful that the aftermarket will finally provide me with a reliable power cable.
Worth knowing about me to qualify my opinion is: I don't use external monitors or keyboards. I don't ever want to use a configuration of my computer that will make me unhappy or feel less productive when I'm not at a desk, because I strongly prefer being able to work wherever I happen to be.
