    Just purchased the 2-in-1 Notebook 9 Pro and wondered if someone could recommend a "dock" to plug into the USB-C port. Not sure if that's the lingo people use, but functionally I'm looking for a single USB-C connector I can plug into the machine that will charge the machine and give me a few USB-3 ports. Ideally, it would also offer some other legacy ports such as audio-out and VGA or DVI-D (but I'd settle for 2 HDMI ports.) (And I understand the machine comes with a number of ports--I'm looking for quick in and out from a desktop setup.)
    Could someone suggest something?

    Thx, J

    There are a few other threads around the forum with similar questions. This discussion has a recommendation which might meet your needs. You may want to dig into the specs to ensure that the power provided by the dock includes that wanted by your device. The USB-C Power Delivery specs (there are several versions) involves negotiation between power source and device to agree the voltage and power rating.
