When I'm at home (which is the vast majority of the time now in Summer), I rarely use my laptop away from my desk. When it is at the desk, I plug in a monitor through HDMI, a power cable, and a mouse and keyboard that always stay there.

I was wondering if anyone had any recommendations as to a good dock or product that does a good job of transforming a laptop into a true "desktop replacement."

Ideally, it would allow all the connections to remain in place, with minimal effort to take the laptop in and out of the fixture.

Thanks for any suggestions!
