Hello,

I'm considering the purchase of a 13" TB MacBook Pro for work.

I use two monitors at work. When I sit down at my desk with my current Dell laptop, I have to plug in two monitor cables (one digital, one VGA) as well as USB-A hub. One of the things that's attractive about the USB-C/Thunderbolt ports on the MacBook is the ability to plug in a single cable...

But what cable would that be? Although I know Thunderbolt is fast enough to support it, I can't seem to find anything that will support two monitors if one is VGA/analog. Upgrading the monitor is out of the question, as I use an old 17" 4:3 Samsung that's over a decade old but still works well and most importantly fits on my small desk beside my larger monitor.

Any suggestions would be most welcome :) I am willing to spend on the right dock, but not more than a couple hundred $$. Thanks!
