It updated a Thinkpad dock with no issues while on Windows, I had to find specific drivers and sketchy update utilities. Awesome!

    I used it at work recently to update my work-provided HP Thunderbolt dock, and it resolved an issue where the external monitors would fail to activate after resuming from standby. I never got an update notification when I was using my Windows laptop so I was oblivious to it; it was only thanks to connecting it to my Linux laptop and fwupd, that I found out there was an update, which subsequently resolved the issue.

    I love it when stuff like this happens and Linux saves the day. =) (and I get to show off to my Windows heathens colleagues.)
