I have two older Toshiba laptops running in these docking stations on my
network.  The children use them for surfing, ICQ, MSOffice (slowly but
surely) and all their ordinary tasks.  The machines both run Win95, while I
use Win98 and ICS.

I have thought about putting a CD-Rom drive into one of them too.  My guess
is that it would have to use a sound card interface as I think the docking
stations maybe to old to accept ATAPI interface.

I'd appreciate any feedback too!
