Laptop Docking Stations - A Practical Alternative To Having A Travel Laptop And A Home Or Work Desktop Computer!

By Tom Top

These days laptops or notebook computers can do virtually everything your work or home desktop computer can do with the added benefit of portability. Nothing could be more convenient than getting several hours of work done while on an airplane somewhere. That's all well and good while you're on the road but what about those of us who use our laptop computers as our main computers at work or home?

Although it is possible to hook up an external monitor, keyboard, mouse, printer, hard drive, computer fan, and scanner into your laptop, it's quite a time consuming process. You'll have cords coming out from everywhere making your computer look more like your kids science project.

Getting a great laptop docking station is the most sensible solution. What it is a unit that stays on your desk and transforms your small laptop into the desktop computer you wish it was. All of your accessories plug into the docking station so there's no more messing with USB cords. When you get home or to work you just slide your laptop on the docking station and you're ready to roll!

All of a sudden everything is ergonomically correct. That tiny screen that you have to hunch over to see is replaced by your large computer screen. The small keyboard is replaced by your favorite external keyboard. Trade in that finicky touch pad mouse for a larger external mouse or trackball.

Finally, all you have to do is figure out how many accessories you'd like to use from your computer and what type of port is required. Then you'll know how many ports and what kind of ports you need for the perfect laptop docking station. - 31403
