Companies often have flex offices with docking stations.

So previously you would have a screen, mouse and keyboard at every desk and people would move a laptop (ignoring its low res screen and bad keyboard).

Here you would have just a screen at every desk and people move their mouse and keyboard.

Also, this does have a battery.

So instead of carrying a slightly larger but perfectly useful computer (a laptop) I have to carry a smaller but useless keyboard and mouse for the benefit of not having a keyboard and mouse sitting on a desk when the desk isn't being used? I still don't get it.

I could see the benefit if this thing dropped the keyboard entirely to make it as small as possible but still I'd rather just carry a small laptop.

It has an “Optional...internal battery” that “lets you go between workspaces without rebooting”.
