I have a ton of the bottom three laptops, wanna trade for the shitty one up top?

My thinkpad is also light in the connectivity area and I absolutely adore the $30 dock I got for it. Click the laptop in place and LAN, displays, audio, power, keyboard, mouse, external storage are connected instantly; if I had to connect each one separately, multiple times per day, I'd go insane.

Dude if you need that many ports just buy a P50 workstation

All you need is a couple of USB-C ports and maybe a HDMI port on most modern laptops. More is good but not a requirement.

The sb part of the acronym means Serial Buss which is what all external peripherals used to connect to the system. The u part means Universal as in one size fits all. Every iteration of the spec has led up to this point. We had A,B,Micro, and now C. Everything could also be wireless today if there were enough spectrum available
