Laptop Recommendations? 

Thinking about a new work laptop and I can pretty much choose what I want. Any recs? Thinking 14-15", Ethernet and Displayport (can be usb-c at mode) a must.

@zetasyanthis Hmm. we've liked our lenovo g710 but it might be a bit large for you

it only has hdmi out but that's compatible with displayport, right?

@Felthry No, unfortunately. Can go the other way, but not to DP. Especially since I want to use DP's multi-streaming to drive multiple monitors via one cable. (I have a kvm before dual monitors.)

@zetasyanthis ah, fair enough

honestly it was only last year that we learned that displayport existed and we haven't really had much cause to do anything with it beyond hook up a monitor to our computer with it
