    Hello there,

    What type of docking station or ports replacement would you guys recommend? I required Parallel port for my old printer and Serial port for my GPS. I also required Ethernet port. So, i just leave the dock/port replacement at work and only plug just 1 USB plus rather then parallel port for printer, serial, mouse and ethernet.

    I was looking at the Targus/Kensington USB docking port but was reluctant because of the bad reviews it have when i do a search, due to driver issue and you need to reset the dock everytime the system goes on standby or hybernate.

    Does anyone any experience with Belkin USB 2.0 DOCKSTATION? Or a what would your recommendation?

    thanks in advance.
