Thunderbolt display to PC
I have a Thunderbolt display and would like to use it with a Lenova T450 on a docking station. Is there a way to connect the two devices?

In order to be able to use the Thunderbolt Display with a PC, that PC needs a Thunderbolt port (not a Mini DisplayPort; Thunderbolt and Mini DisplayPort have got the same connector, but they're not the same), and then you may need some additional drivers that are available only for Macs, so it would be a hard process.

Thanks. That's what I thought but was hopeful there was an adaptor available or HDMI would work...
Unfortunately, the Thunderbolt Display can only be plugged through Thunderbolt. To be honest, there are cheaper (and maybe better) displays you can use on a PC.
Understood - I just happen to have a Thunderbolt I could use... On to Dell unfortunately.
