This one laptop from the 2000s did not require a single dongle.

Follow us @oddsontechnology for more tech archives and tech videos. The Fujitsu LifeBook is a reminder of a time when laptops were built to connect to almost everything right out of the box. Instead of carrying USB-C hubs and dongles, users had built-in VGA, DVI, PS/2, parallel, Ethernet, dial-up modem, S-Video, audio ports, and multiple USB connections ready for monitors, printers, projectors, keyboards, mice, and wired networks. Modern laptops are thinner, lighter, and more minimalist, but many have traded connectivity for portability. What once fit directly into the laptop now often requires a collection of adapters. For many people who grew up in the Windows XP, Windows 2000, and early ThinkPad, Dell Latitude, Toshiba, and Fujitsu era, this kind of all-in-one connectivity has become a piece of computing history.
