Docking Stations & Port Replicators

Enhance the usefulness of your laptop computer with docking stations and port replicators from Overstock.com. These helpful devices make it easy to quickly plug your laptop into a new set of peripherals -- one at your desk at work, one at your desk at home, one anywhere you need to quickly set up shop and be ready to get to work on your laptop.

Set up a docking station at your desk at home, then install all the peripherals you want to use with your laptop -- a mouse, keyboard or other input devices; an external monitor; even additional hard drives. Now, when you attach your laptop to the docking station, you'll have instant access to the peripherals on your laptop, without the fumbling and hassle of re-attaching all your peripherals every time you want to setup up your laptop at a new location. Docking stations sometimes even offer you peripheral connections that your laptop doesn't offer when it's undocked.

You can also expand on your laptop's interfaces with a port replicator. Many port replicators use a USB connection to attach to your laptop and then give you several more USB connections. Other port replicators may simply let you attach a keyboard, mouse and external monitor, giving you the expansion options of a basic docking station but usually at a lower price than a full-fledged docking station.

Consider the improvements to your productivity when you're always able to have a complete set of peripherals everywhere you want to work on your laptop. Imagine the convenience of not having to plug and unplug every time you want to change locations. A docking station or a port replicator can give it to you.
