Employer took my computer and gave me a micro laptop for my WFH desk job

I sit behind a computer 8+ hours a day processing data analytics, doing financials and offering customer service. Our organization's new parent company just waltzed and sent us these 8 inch micro laptops with only ONE USB port to replace our current workstations, and they are not compatible with our desktop monitors. Apparently, unless I want to buy a USB hub or docking station out of pocket I have to take all my video calls on WiFi and choose between having a keyboard, a mouse, and a headset. I can't wait to let them know next week they'll either need to replace these sad palm pilots or replace me.
