 The best thing ever September 30, 2008
M. Boza (St Croix, Virgin Islands)
It is the best buy I have made, the only down side is that it is tall so I couldn't use but the docking station. No more cables all around. My laptop had only two USB port so this was the answer to all my needs.

I've used this with my Dell620 (XP) and Toshiba A205 (Vista) laptops. Drivers worked well for each. Black finish is nice, shows some dust but compliments both PCs. Love the fact that my wireless keyboard \rodent, MagicJack, and external drive can now stay plugged in.
The Toshiba has top mounted speakers, so I have to use the audio properties to make the laptop use its own - the dock defaults to the audio out port on the replicator.
I have one complaint (-1 Star) it doesn't have a video-out port. So when dual monitoring (almost always) have to to connect the monitor directly to the laptop.
Aside from that, I'm very pleased with the unit.
It works!! August 4, 2008

This docking station works perfect with my Dell laptop. I have all my cords run through to the bottom of my desk where the docking station plugs in (on the floor). I power up my computer, plug in the few cords and presto I can now use a wireless keyboard and external monitor! SO much better now that I have a larger screen to work with (my dell only had a 15" monitor). Very happy with the product. It is somewhat large and bulky, however I have mine hidden underneath my desk. Would definitly purchase again, maybe for my home.
good purchase June 23, 2008

The product came in good condition and at the specified time. The product description was very accurate.

I own an Acer laptop and Acer doesn't offer dedicated docking stations, so I was happy to come across this item. I also found a good deal on it, which made me even happier.
today I got the product and I am returning it tomorrow.
First, this thing is MASSIVE! in the pictures you see the supporting leg at its closest position to the base, but that would position the screen at about your forehead hight. If you open the leg to a realistic angle the footprint it HUGE, a lot bigger then the laptop itself would have taken!
second, its a universal stand and it shows; my laptop is a supper ordinary 15.4 size, and yet the feet is lousy - it sticks out on both sides (the pictures must be showing a 12 inch laptop), and it is VERY loose thickness wise - it basically just lies there with no real support.
I would also expect a stand of this kind to improve heat disposal in a way, since it elevates the laptop, but on the contrary - its back has no holes and it is flat against my laptop buttom. Even a regular paper notebook under my laptop does a better job!
last, it blocks access to many important keys on my laptop, such as volume, card reader and more.
The docking station itself (SD100) isn't much either. As one of the other reviewers mentioned, this is at best a port replicator, not a docking station. If you have to buy it, than it is better by itself than with the stand, but again, I don't think it is worth the price. get a great powered USB hub for 20$ and be done with it. to pay that much more for an extra audio plug is just not worth it. and what is the point of getting an Ethernet cable modem if eventually you get everything running through a single over loaded USB cable (the one that connects the whole docking station to the laptop). If any of you need a reminder about how slow USB is (even USB 2), try to connect an external hard drive once with a USB cable and once with Firewire, and see the difference. So I ended up connecting the network cable directly to my laptop anyway....
I usually like Kensington products, but I must say that this one is a serious disappointment.
