So, the #Commodore64 Ultimate has its USB ports, ethernet jack, and HDMI port where the user port would go.

So, what happened to the user port? Well, it's internal. It uses a 24-pin connector on the motherboard and they sell an adapter for you to plug standard C64 user port devices to, or you can optionally poke an extension out through the datasette port to have it go external. But...

Looking at the pinouts of the original, the user port provides 5V power and has both serial and parallel communications.

Hmmm...

5V power.
serial.
internal.

Apple should dip into its mountain of cash and gift a BlueSCSI to anyone who can prove they’ve got a classic Mac in need of a little love. Call it a service to nostalgia. After all, Apple isn’t exactly dazzling us with future-shaping innovation these days—and for them, it’d be nothing more than pocket change.
