I'm using the old 2.5amp supply with adapter.
Don't need the extra power for USB HD yet.

Power supply is not the same as charger.
And USB-C PS/Chargers might do bad stuff.
Why fix something that might not work on all those third party PS/Chargers.

Get the official 3amp one(when available) and support the RPF?
Or recall all Pi4's?

Those who can afford a Macbook don't have any money spare for the Official supply?
But yep rev 5.0 of the PCB is in the works?

...that means another 10mb or so on the boot partition....

Not exactly, since the Pi 4 uses a complete own kernel there is a good option to minimize the boot partition size. Just by spliting the whole thing in 2 different images. Images 1 Pi 1 - Pi 3, Image 2 only Pi 4 kernel.

This should safe us some space.
