Product Description
The Targus Universal Notebook Docking Station with Video is the first USB based docking station with true video output capabilities. This "One Touch" interface allows users to quickly and easily connect to an external monitor, keyboard, Ethernet, mouse, printer, speakers or other devices in a manner of seconds. This product is also the first docking station to allow users to connect through a single USB connection. The Universal Docking Station provides greater flexibility to commercial users and consumers because it is not notebook platform dependent. It provides a low cost alternative to traditional OEM docking stations and port replicators. When the notebook is placed on top of the docking station, its unique shape provides a more comfortable typing position and allows for better cooling of the notebook. Another factor unique to Targus' Docking Station is the "Always On" capability. A button on the back of the device allows two of the four USB ports to always have power, whether the notebook is powered down or in sleep mode. It allows USB devices plugged into the docking station to continually have power or to recharge. A great use for the "Always On" feature is to continuously charge devices such as mice, phones or PDAs. Targus' four USB ports are also adapter friendly, meaning they are spaced twice as far apart as typical to allow any size of adapter to be plugged into the port.

I had the same problem as the other customer but downloaded the updated drivers from Targus' website at http://www.targus.com/us/product_details.asp?sku=ACP50US. This fixed the problem and this product works GREAT! I recommend it highly. Great product.

Unless your brand of PC Notebook has their own model specific docking station design for it, you can't beat this one. With a simple and single cable (USB 2.0), the Targus Dock is ready to go, including the Video Monitor Output, Sound, Network and other USB devices like your mouse or printer. If your notebook supports higher than 1024x768 video out, you might still want to plug the notebook directly into your monitor.
All for a lot less than the docks sold by HP, Compaq, Toshiba, Sony and the others.

I was looking for a product to use with our Headless Computer, once the Docking Station was setup, I was able to disconnec the display and use it with voice and button commands, with this product, I was able to get video with Mouse and Keyboard on the fly to reconfigure the computer, excellent product, I bought a few.

My customer was looking for a universal docking station to allow for usage with multiple laptops. This was the second universal docking station I tried. The first was connected through the PCMCIA slot. After several attempts to get it working, I resolved to research the manufacturer website only to find that the laptops were not listed as being compatible. So much for 'universal.'
The Targus ACP50US connects to the laptop via USB allowing for a quick and easy disconnect. The feature highly favored is the ability to quickly change the display. At the click of a button, the primary display can be either the laptop or an attached monitor. The display can be extended across both monitors or mirrored. When the docking station is disconnected, the display is set to the laptop. When the docking station is reconnected, the display automatically returns to the last setting.
Overall, the Targus ACP50US is a great product.
