It's an Acer.  I normally buy Asus, but the Acer had more features for less;
however had I known that the USB C 3 was not gen 2, I would have spent the $50
more for the Asus.  What I have learned is that I might be able to use the
Microsoft Wireless Data Port and use it to mirror my laptop display, while
using my built in HDMI as my extended laptop.  I ordered it and will see if
it works.  IF a notebook has USB C 3.1 GEN2 then that USB port would send
video, at which point a $10 cable would allow for 2 external monitors. 
Hopefully this Wireless option works.
