Average Rating:  out of 5 stars

Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - Satisfactory, But Could Be Improved
I bought one of these for my Lenovo T61 four months ago, mostly to add a "real" serial port, which is still widely used in the embedded development field in which I work (USB-to-serial converters add unacceptable overhead to data transfer rates). The serial port works at full speed with true RS-232 levels--no complaint there. Since then I've also appreciated the four extra USB ports, and the convenience of being able to leave all cables still connected to the Mini-Dock when I take my laptop off-site. ... Read More



Rating: 3 out of 5 stars - Docking station for Lenovo T61
The T61 (wide screen) laptop does not well attach to the docking station.
So you need to be gentele on the whole thing once it's in the docking station. Mechanically speaking - they could have done a much better job.

I needed the docking station to get RS232 and LPT ports, that the T61
on its own lacks. As such this is really really not cost effective solution. The docking station is way too expensive in my opinion and not just for my needs.

So if you are considering ... Read More



Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - 2 external displays under Linux
I was unsure about this myself, so I am happy to confirm that this product *does* let you use two external monitors under Linux. (You may have to disable the built in display panel to do it, though...I don't think the Intel GMA integrated card can support all 3 at once).



Rating: 3 out of 5 stars - ThinkPad quality, but not without flaws
I bought this for DVI output. And for that purpose, its perfect. The build is of the same quality as the laptop. The price is a bit high, but this is the cheaper way to do DVI on the T60. The two problems I have with it is heat and mic-in.

I always have my T60 on a laptop cooler that blows air from underneath the laptop. The cooler works really well. Unfortunately, this dock manages to cover up the hottest parts of the laptop. To give you a comparison, my laptop cooler will keep my battery ... Read More



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Works as advertized!
2 years ago I bought this product along with my ThinkPad T60 and it worked perfectly without any issues full desktop experience with my laptop before this I always use to have a desktop + a notebook now just a ThinkPad notebook will do 2 years later I upgraded my ThinkPad from T60 to T61 and the docking still works 100% this is a great solution from Lenovo to us ThinkPad owners, all in all a high quality product that deserves more than 5 stars!
