Advantages: Smart and tidy with excellent sound quality Disadvantages: A little heavy
We needed a new dockingstation and immediately we thought 'Bose', knowing that this was, in our opinion the best quality.
Our Ipod was one of the cheaper ones but it makes no difference to the output of sound when in this dockingstation. It is Fantastic!
The acoustics are great, base amazing and as the station is a little heavier, it is safe to place anywhere even with a toddler knocking the table every five minutes!
It has a sleek design that looks perfect in the modern home.
The sound is amazing! it has an easy to use compact remote control, which fits perfectly in your pocket. So while you are out having a BBQ in the garden and want to turn the sound UP or Down, it is simple and easy to do.
You can also adjust the volume on the station with ease.
Even at a high level, the sound comes out perfect...not distorted at all ...
Advantages: Inexpensive Disadvantages: Not too user-friendly
My HP Scanjet 2400 experience began when I inserted the installation CD, this began to run and immediately stopped with a 'Macromedia Projector' error message. I presume 'Macromedia Projector' is software used to momentarily give a flashy display before the installation starts. Overkill that died!!! I am running Windows XP Service Pack 2 so my guess is that there was a conflict.
So I explored the CD, found the Setup files and ran these to install the software. I think this worked, although I have no idea if I got the full software set.
Next I tried to scan a series of A4 (paper size) documents as A4 documents using the HP Director control software. Could I do this? Not without a good deal of manual intervention because after each scan the scanner insisted on removing the margins and I had to manually drag them back into place ...
Advantages: Great connectivity, features, design Disadvantages: needless design change
In my opinion, a dockingstation is a must if you own a laptop that resides on your desk for a big proportion of its working life. Hence my title, the umbilical of life.
With both my current and old HP laptop, i have owned a matching dockingstation and the only critisism would be the fact that the older dockingstation is not compatible with the newer laptop even though there is only a matter of a year or so between. After all they are the same manufacturer!
With that aside, the rest of this review is nothing but praise for my dockingstation!
Looks.
Matches the laptop superbly in colour as both are finished in the graphite black /grey plastic. More block like that the previous DockingStation (DS) the shape and style of it lends itself to supporting a monitor. The old DS simply had the laptop covering the entire item ...
