USB-C does a lot of heavy lifting. Also, MagSafe™ is still there. A little surprised there is also a SD card slot. And a HDMI port. Not complaining about their inclusion, and I do use them regularly, but why did the dongle company give these to us?

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
To make our laptops look clean and minimalistic, they made us buy a bunch of dongles and adapters.
Screw it, I'm buying a rugged laptop with the thickness of a desktop PC next
