    Hello I am new here,
    Don't know if this has been done, if it is please show me link to the post. Thank you.

    I am looking for a Windows Laptop with "Dual Thunderbolt"(Mini DisplayPort) Port
    So far I can see that only Sager/Clevo seems to have this. Dell, Alienware, MSI & other brand have only 1 for the model that have it.

    Wouldn't also mind if I can get list of Sager/Clevo Model with this feature too.

    Can anybody help?

    Thank you

    @Soundfloss the only laptops with dual Thunderbolt miniDP connector I am aware of are old Macbooks, e.g. Mid 2015 Retina Macbook Pro, etc. Early Thunderbolt revisions which had miniDP connector (Thunderbolt 1 & 2) were not exactly popular, and besides Macbooks, laptops of that time had single TB2 port at best. Those Macbooks do run Windows via Bootcamp.

    If you want older Thunderbolt ports because you have some specific Thunderbolt 1/2 equipment you want to reuse, picking any laptop with 2 or more Thunderbolt 3 ports plus TB3 to TB2 adapters is the way to go.
