I wish companies would stop referring to hubs as "docks." @Zarathustra knows what I am talking about.

I just want the top down pop-in docks back

I don't know why Dell decided to get rid of the ones they used for their Latitude line. they were the best in the industry.

Man both Dell and Thinkpad/IBM had good serviceable docking stations that have gone the way of the DODO. I hate the new ones... while I still use them and see the function I miss the ability to just slap my laptop down and get to work. Now I gotta plug **** in and make sure i have a space for the laptop and other comparatively minor inconveniences.

I wouldn't care if it was via a usb 3.2 port recessed on the bottom of my laptop custom to slap down on a docking station. Make it as durable and functional and I'll be good.
