Isn't there a HDMI to USB-C adapter or something? Just go to your nearest BestBuy and stare real close at the TVs there, maybe they'll even let you connect your laptop to the screen to test?

I was always a huge monitor nut, and this old 50" Samsung is the nicest monitor I've ever used.
That's the problem.... My new laptop is really a Microsoft Surface Pro 11 and it's USB-C. I am going to be using a Microsoft Thunderbolt 4 dock. I can hook the laptop directly up from the laptop using USB-C to an adaptor... but once I use the dock it doesn't work. For some reason the docking station doesn't play nicely with adaptors.

I have a dozen monitors here at the house but they are all older.
