PinePower desktop

If Pine64 ever build a new (48V 5A) PinePower desktop power supply these are some design ideas:

- Also functions as a usb c hub/dock.

- Screw-on accessory (or integrated in the corners) bracket for one or 2 standard balanced arms. Thus using the pinepower as a base for a lamp/microphone/tablet holder, depending on its weight. A hole for a 1/4" screw in the center of the bracket, flush with the pinepower's top, allows a camera tripod extension pole with a tablet holder to be mounted directly above the Pinepower for optimal weight distribution.

- The balanced arm may have a 1/4" threaded camera (or 3/4" microphone) connector and a matching (internal or external) usb c cable.

This allows attached usb c devices like a portable monitor (or Pinetab) in a clamp to use the Pinepower as a dock, a Pinephone wired to the Pinepower could be the host. The Pinepower becomes the center of a clean and movable ergonomic desk.
