I'm looking for!: Notebook accessories

I have 2 MacBook Pros. My personal (13" 2015) and that provided by my work (15" 2017). Both work great. Both run Mojave and installation was pretty easy. I use two 24 inch monitors from Media Gear and a third one from Thunderbolt. I can leave my external USB stick plugged into the dock and I love that I can charge devices too. From time to time I work from home. Time, and it's nice to be able to switch from one Mac to another instead of lugging around a bunch of keys. ** Attention Catalina OS users ** The problem is not with the device itself, but with the DisplayLink drivers for Catalina. is still in beta stage. I tried it because my personal Mac already worked with it (big mistake, really buggy). There is a solution to make it work, but I haven't bothered with it. I restored my 13" MBP to Mojave (thank goodness for Time Machine), installed the drivers, rebooted, plugged in and viola, all my monitors worked. There were no overheating issues either. Remember that there is 1 HDMI port and 1 digital display port. Connect the digital display cable to HDMI, DVI, or VGA, depending on which ports your monitor supports. Nice that a USB-C to USB adapter is also included. I haven't tried this on a Windows machine, but I think it's just as easy to set up. I would recommend it.

Pros
  • Connections: USB C (input) | 2 USB 3.0 ports | 4 USB 2.0 ports | HDMI | display port | Gigabit Ethernet | 3.5mm audio and microphone jack
Cons
  • Nothing
