Darragh, I've never bought a docking station & didn't want to buy one that was going to mess up video or something. I did scratch my head with this so called I T Asessor from the RNIB said you had to be careful. I take it you need to buy a docking station from the same manufacturer as the laptop? I was thinking of getting this laptop, http://www.misco.co.uk/Product/197332/HP-ProBook-4540s-Intel-Core-i5-2450M-1... Do the Del Lat's still have an apps key? I've seen a few Insprons lately that have done completely away with the apps key. No FN switch for it, notten. Cheers, Barry. I'm after one with a numpad built-in & a decent CPU. -----Original Message----- From: Blind-sysadmins [mailto:blind-sysadmins-bounces@lists.hodgsonfamily.org] On Behalf Of Darragh OHeiligh Sent: 26 November 2012 14:50 To: Blind sysadmins list Cc: Blind-sysadmins Subject: Re: [Blind-sysadmins] Laptops, Docking Stations 7 JAWS hahahaha. What does a docking station have to do with Jaws? Sometimes I wonder about these people. Not you Bary. I mean the people who are advising. I like the Dell latitude laptops. Very nice. Docking stations are decent as well. If portability is important, Go with the smaller XPS. Absolutely spectacular system.

A guy I was talking to some weeks back in the RNIB mentioned something about being careful on the docking stations, in-terms of compatibility with JAWS. Is this true, and what would the criteria to determine this be? Cheers, Barry. Regards, Barry.
