Pretty much anyone can recognize the value of a good docking station—that goes double for any friends or family member who work from home. Many of us are primarily laptop users. It’s comfortable to work from the couch, bring it to a coffee shop, or always have it with you when traveling for either work or leisure. However, a docking station allows you to open up possibilities with a larger work space when needed. And right now, this one from Dell is on sale for $50 off. That brings it down from $100 to just $50.
Sure, it feels fine to work just with the laptop alone but we deserve better than fine: sometimes it’s better to have a fully robust workstation. My desk has two monitors, each significantly larger than my laptop screen. This is great for viewing multiple tabs at once or for gaming or video editing. I have a mechanical keyboard with raised, clicky-clacky keys which I find much more satisfying to type on than the flat keypad of my laptop. The speakers on my desk are louder and deeper than the ones built-into my computer. I’ve got a drawing tablet, a DSLR I’ve hooked up as a webcam for exceptional camera quality, and a powerful microphone. My laptop simply does not support all of those at once.
