27-inch iMac gets a major update

The CalDigit TS3 Plus Dock has two USB-C ports and one Thunderbolt 3 port, not counting the port for the computer itself. [0]

(To be clear, USB-C and Thunderbolt 3 ports have the same form factor and Thunderbolt 3 is downwards compatible with USB-C.)

This is the only way you can end up with >1 USB-C port, afaik. It's not currently possible to split USB-C like USB-A, so the only way you can get a second USB-C port is if you have a Mac and use a Thunderbolt dock.

This one works great but it gets hot as hell and if you want to use the USB hookups to charge devices, forget it, they only offer a trickle of charge
