Lenovo ThinkPad USB Port Replicator with Digital Video - USB docking station Review

Lenovo ThinkPad USB Port Replicator with Digital Video - USB docking station
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
I made the mistake of buying this product thinking it had displaylink hardware inside, like some other lenovo usb to video adapter. With this product, you do not have the option to rotate the monitor, which was a dealbreaker for me since I wanted to use two portrait oriented monitors with my laptop. I returned this product and got a kensington product with exactly the same features but this time, displaylink certified.
Other problems with the lenovo:
- Doesn't go into screen saver or power save mode when the other monitors do.
- Red colored text shows discoloration
- Images show compression artifacts
Didn't have the same problems with the replacement displaylink product.

USB 2.0 Multi-Display Adapter Review

USB 2.0 Multi-Display Adapter

1. Insert the CD and install the driver
2. Reboot your computer
3. Connect one end of the USB cable into the adapter, the other into your computer
4. Connect the adapter to your monitor and turn the monitor on
5. If you monitor has multiple sources, choose the correct source (DVI, Video, etc.)
That's it! It automatically extends the desktop to the new monitor. Use Display Settings for further configuration, such as placement of the new monitor (on the right or the left), screen resolution, etc.
We got dual monitors at work about a year ago and it's been rather painful to work (or play) at home with a mere one monitor. I wish I had bought this a year ago!

J-Tech Digital Multi-Display USB 2.0 to DVI/VGA/HDMI with Audio output FULL HD 1080P Adapter External Video Card Link up to 6 Displays (The latest & the best) Review

The product description says that you can connect up to six monitors and play audio and video at the same time. What it fails to tell you is that you have to have six different devices. You can only connect one monitor with the device. You can not play audio and video at the same time unless you use the HDMI port. The product works just fine, but due to the description being misleading, I am very disappointed.

Plugable UGA-125 USB 2.0 to VGA/DVI/HDMI Adapter for Multiple Monitors up to 1280x1024 / 1440x900 Each (DisplayLink DL-125 Chipset) Review

I bought this adapter to connect a third monitor (1280x1080) to my iMac with 2.66GHz quad-core Intel Core i5 processor and OS X 10.6.4. I downloaded the OS X driver from the manufacturer website, installed it, restarted and connected the monitor. Works just great and delivers a great picture. On more reason to like this adapter is that it comes super complete with adapters for VGA and HDMI and a USB cable. Given the fact that Apple takes 30 Dollars just for a Mini Displayport to DVI adapter (which, of course, you can also buy here at Amazon for $10) I find the $50 that I paid for this USB adapter a reasonable solution to connect another monitor to an iMac.

Plugable UGA-2K-A USB 2.0 to VGA/DVI/HDMI Adapter for Multiple Monitors up to 2048x1152 / 1920x1200 Each (DisplayLink DL-195 Chipset) Review

I work at an office where each computer has 4 screens. We had no difficulty getting desktop cards to run 4 screens, but laptops were a different story. We used to get these large Dell docking stations with a pci card slot. They no longer make these and the new ones will do two external screens with the laptop closed. We keep the laptops closed on the docks, so I needed 2 more screens.
We purchased another brand of USB adapters and while they worked, we had problems with them. If you open anything video intense (quicktime for instance) or that heavily used the microsoft .net framework, the screens would flicker and go crazy. You would lose control of the mouse and keyboard making the computer unusable. Quickbooks 2010 was one of these products.
The screens with the other brand of USB adapters were also somewhat fuzzy and much less clear than the 2 screens on the integrated video.
I had just about given up hope when I read about Display link. I mean all usb adapters are equal right? (Answer: No way!) I visited their website and saw the videos of one of their employees running 720p video and thought I would give it a shot. Plugable was one of their featured products.
What a difference! These Plugable adapters are almost identical to the integrated video. They have clean and crisp video and each one shows up as a separate monitor in the Windows display preferences. I was able to play video and open Quickbooks without error. PDFs and other documents also scrolled faster, identical to the speed of the integrated video. They used to lag before when on the usb adapter screens.
This product is highly recommended for those needing extra screens. Very highly recommended for laptop users because your video card options are limited.
I even had the company contact me to let me know that there had been a price drop shortly after I ordered, and they wanted to refund me the difference. Very few companies would do that, and it speaks volumes to the folks over at Plugable. Thanks again for making such a wonderful product.
