Beyond Laptop Deployments - The New Ways As technology evolves, so do the challenges faced in deploying laptop computers for various projects. One significant challenge in recent times is the absence of traditional I/O ports on new laptop systems. Instead, laptops now often come equipped with only USB Type-C connectors or a few Thunderbolt ports for I/O purposes. This transition presents unique obstacles for laptop-computer deployment projects, particularly concerning the connectivity of external video devices and USB peripherals. In this blog article, we will explore the new challenges arising from this shift and propose solutions to ensure successful laptop computer deployment projects in the face of limited I/O ports. Traditional laptop deployment that mainly focused on the installation of OS and applications/reconfiguration system setup/profiling can no longer meet the challenges from a new generation of laptop hardware and firmware integration, and secure configuration requirement
