For thunderbolt three capable Macs we are looking at purchasing non-DisplayLink docks for several hundred dollars apiece. Not sure what we will do with the pre-2017 10.13.3 Macs when the next security-related vulnerability hits...
Having just purchased a couple of USB-C docks from Startech, this makes me very unhappy.

Two questions:

1. What non-DisplayLink docks are you looking at? I need to drive two monitors and haven't found a non-DisplayLink dock that does that.

2. This is an opinion question - but if Apple doesn't ever fix this or it drags on like it already has - should the dock manufacutuers provide a refund since the product is not performing as advertised? Personally, I think so. Sure, they can blame Apple, DisplayLink, etc. but in the end they sold a product that relied on that technology...

Thanks!
