USB-C and Thunderbolt docks are taking on all kinds of functionality beyond port replication, from support for Intel’s Thunderbolt Share peer-to-peer file and screen-sharing tech to becoming app platforms.
A 160-watt dock branded 4URPC (can’t argue with that) making its way through Kickstarter strikes a middle ground, showing basic info on the power levels being used and the resolutions being supported. While it stays true to the kind of info that’s relevant to its tasks, it’s not info that should change very often.
