usb compliant devices (phones, tablets, etc.) can charge from any
compliant port, which includes all macbooks, imacs, thinkpads, etc.

if you mean charge the laptop via usb, that requires usb-c and very few
laptops have that (so far). the macbooks announced last week can, as
can a few others, however, some require a specific charger (namely hp
with an hp charger *only*).
