> In other news, I do think desk makers should start incorporating the USB dock inside the top board of a desk. People go through a lot of money and bullshit to keep their setup clean, especially those who swap computers

Will be obsolete in 5 years every time

Humanscale the docks on the monitor arms look integrated but they're actually a really slick attachment that goes around the base nice and snug, so it just looks like one piece. It can be replaced if you take off the monitor, I really liked that. Humanscale is also extremely expensive as far as monitor arms go.
The selection isn't great yet, but you can get a USB charger or USB hub desk grommet (or one that does both).

Hopefully there will be a matching sized one (60mm) doing something useful, but if not you can just put a normal grommet cover in and do the stuff under the desk.

I'm using these things a bunch.
