I think out of all of that they are speaking of, the part I have the most interest in is their version of a laptop with a desktop GPU dock. I have seen many of these so far and some have been cool while others have been a little meh in their design choices. What I really want to see is a nice mobile device with like an 860/960m GPU, a decent i7 mobile, and a few other features (Maybe dual 2.5 bays etc) while having a dock to connect to that allows lots of other ports on the device including things like DP's, HDMI, USB, etc for a home gaming setup. I have seen the dock setup they have for it and that honestly seems like one of the better/best designs right now for this though I am a bit sad they chose the iris pro GPU over having an actual NVidia or AMD GPU for a bit of gaming on the fly as it would win me over instantly.

I want more supported laptops from MSI so we can have a wide variety of devices and sizes to fit our needs.

Is it safe to assume both, Type-C and Type-A are going to be present in the future and not just Type-C?
