The 2nd from top has two lightning sparks. To charge the laptop, I have to connect them to the two holes in my outlet, right?

Wow is that firewire? Haven't seen that in a while
to be fair, the bandwidth of all the ports on the bottom laptop probably fit in 1 (maaaaybe 2? Just spitballing here) Thunderbolt 5 ports depending how fast the ethernet port is. BTW, why would you want a port that isn't reversible like USB C lol...
I believe that the topmost (M1?) MacBook still has a headphone Jack on the other (right-hand) side.
PS: by no means am I an apple fanboy, but I inherited an old Retina MacBook Pro that I installed Linux on and now use as my daily driver. It still holds up extremely well considering it's 11 years old. The only ports it's really missing is an RJ45 and (nowadays) USB-C.
Even Lenovo is doing it with Thinkpads, the t14 gen 6 has soldiered ram and only two USB A ports
Just one port to rule them all
