All the people saying buy a dongle are forgetting to mention that dongles stop working all the fucking time. It's yet another potential point of failure that stops ALL work dead in its tracks if it happens.

All the other brands went along

(My 2020 G14 has 3 A ports and ethernet, but still...)

Not all. If I dont get 2 USB-A ports, I ain't buying. Fortunately thinkpads still have them

ThinkPad gang laughing in redundant tf ports

I love it personally. At work I have two monitors, networking, mouse and keyboard all going through one port. So much easier in my opinion.

Well do you sell me a docking station with that laptop?

Or are you going to let me get buy some adapter dongles?

How about more USB c ports?
