This docking station works wonders. I'm a software developer and designer by trade, so I have tons of wires at my workstation that I have to hook up into my laptop everytime I sit down to work. What this station allowed me to do was plug everything into it, and reduce the cables I need to plug into my laptop down to ONE!
Not only that, It added an extra DVI port and an HDMI port for me to finally get my dual external monitors going with my laptop, along with my Wacom Cintiq Hybrid Display (yes, thats 4 displays when all is said and done).
Another great thing about this is that I would always just use a wireless connection with my laptop instead of fighting with the ethernet cable. Now I just plug the cable into the docking station, and viola! Whenever I want a more secure, faster connection, it's right there, one usb cable away! Don't know how I worked without one for so long!
Love it!
