Although I did see a lot of negative feedback posted for this product, I thought I'd give it a shot anyway since it really seemed to be exactly what I was looking for. Setting up the product was a sinch. The directions were very straight forward and everything installed and worked as expected. I had plugged into the unit a monitor, speakers, ethernet, and a couple of additional USB devices. Again, everything worked just fine. What disappointed me was the video quality, it was very poor. I had the docking station hooked up to my Alienware M15x laptop. As you may or may not know, this is a gaming system with fantastic graphics. When running the monitor through the docking station, the graphics were well below average so this didn't fly with me. Otherwise, everything else was fine. If you're not worried about video quality, then I'd recommend you give it a try.

This product is not perfect. The docking station works if I boot the computer with the docking station plugged in. If you unplug the docking station and then plug it back in, it does not seem to work(monitor does not work). So you have to reboot the computer if you want the docking station to work 100%. I tried a few other products and this one seems to work the best. I tried the Toshiba docking station and I thought that product was terrible.

This was the biggest peice of junk ever! I am now swearing off Belkin. Pros: Looks cool. Cons: Incompatible with just about every Vista laptop (tried to install it on 3). Very difficult to install. Support from Belkin is ridiculous. I'm a programmer & Tech, so I finally got it installed on one of my laptops, the video card never worked. Conclusion: Don't buy this. Research it on the Web 1st. When I purchased it, very few had reviewed it on the Web after purchase, only the main stream media reviewed it and they are too political. Now you will find many bad reviews of this device.
