I will be most likely buying this laptop.  It will be the non touch one and 1920x1200 resolution.

 

I notice this laptop as expensive it is, there are only 3 ports?

 

• Ports

  1 USB 3.2 Gen 2 Type-C™ (with DisplayPort and PowerDelivery)
  2 Thunderbolt™ 4 (USB Type-C™) with DisplayPort and PowerDelivery
  1 3.5mm headphone/microphone combo jack

 

1.  I read there is 0 usb a ports.  At first I didn't even know what usb a port is but when i read about it, I always just called it a usb port.  So how would I even connect my wireless mouse, wired keyboard or port hub to it?  It does say it comes with a usb-c to usb a dongle?  So how exactly does that work?  You connect that dongle to the only usb type c port there is or something?  How many usb a ports can you connect to it then?  So you could only connect 1 only?  so you have to have a port hub then correct to connect more usb a devices like wired keyboard, wireless mouse, usb flash drive?

 

 

2.  I would be connecting 2 external monitors to it.  One would be a 32' 4k samsung monitor where i previously used a usb-c to displayport cable to it.  The other monitor is a 24' 1920x1200 asus monitor that I connected using a hdmi to dvi cable to it.  That asus monitor also has vga and display port as well.  So with the same cables I have, could I connect it to these 2 external monitors or not?  Would I need to buy an hdmi adapter?  Would i need a docking station?  I assume no issue connecting a usb-c to displayport cable to the 32' 4k samsung monitor right?  But I cannot connect the 24' asus monitor without some sort of adapter?   Could I actually connect a second 4k monitor somehow and if so, it would have to be usb-c from the laptop right?  Also how many total external monitors could I connect my laptop to without buying any adapter or dock station?

 

 

3.  There is also no ethernet port and i use it wired a lot.  So i would have to buy an ethernet adapter like the cable matters usb-c adapter right?  

 

Now why is a laptop this expensive not even have the most basic usb a ports?  I know things are changing like they are doing usb charging now as oppose to barrel charging but how does it not even have regular usb ports?

 

Also this laptop would be charging to a usb c port?  Are most laptops like this now or only a few?  Every laptop i ever used is like a barrel type of charging.
