This Kensington dock product allows you to connect a second monitor to the notebook so that you have a total of three screens including the notebook screen.If you follow these instructions, then this device works fine with the latest (April 2010 refresh) MacBook Pro notebooks running 10.6.3. 1. Buy and set up the dock but DO NOT INSTALL THE SOFTWARE THAT COMES WITH IT 2. Download the 64-bit driver (currently a beta) from DisplayLink and install it: [...] The 32-bit driver (which is not a beta) will work fine on Snow Leopard unless you need a portrait mode (screen rotation). The 64-bit driver fixes that. I'm running 1200x1920 (the max resolution) in portrait mode with no problems. Previous to this, I was using ScreenRecycler, which is a lot slower.

The unit installed without a hitch. Performs well during tasks such as word processing, spreadsheets, etc. But beware: for apps that require graphics speed (computer games, etc.), this is not what you want. On some games the apps wouldn't launch. On others, the graphics were "herky-jerky" at best. I spoke with Kensington tech support about this matter and was told that "They do not recommend this Docking Station for computer games and the like". I told him that this was never mentioned in the product description, he then gave his apologies a second time. Needless to say, I had to return this item.. |
