    For compac CQ50-139 laptop, what would be compatible docking station/port
    replicator. Or/And what universal docking station is the best? Also, what does "refurbished" mean and are these OK to purchase? thanks much.

    Doking station? Easiest thing to do is check your manufacturers website.

    I don't know about universal ones.

    Refurbished = returned (all of it, or pieces) and these had been checked and are now resold. Basically - Second hand.

    Also think if you really need one.
