I opened the box and immediately flinched. When it first came in the mail I was super excited.

The Henge Dock seemed to be the solution. it can be cumbersome every time you disconnect. If you have a lot of peripherals like a monitor, hard drives, etc. Most of what is found out there isn't a dock, but a stand and you connect everything directly to your laptop. For the MAC, however, it's been a challenge.

When I was a PC user docks were easy to come by and simple to use. I asked our IT dept to please take it away, and burn it. The Henge Dock is made of ambergris generated by the fail whale. Then you can just take that frame with the connectors already in it and snap it into the base. A better alternative to the endlessly frustrating setup process: They should have provided a rubberized snap-together frame for all of the ports that you can just fit around the connectors after they're already in the Mac, securing them in the frame with pressure. However, it left my heart filled with deep antipathy rather than love due to terrible execution. It's clear that the company really likes Apple products and emulates them in packaging, simple directions, etc. I also found that the two screws on the back of the Macbook facing into the dock were shaving away little white bits of plastic each time I slid it into the dock, and one of them was significantly loosened by this. There are no ports or openings that help you see whether positive contact is made, whether the power light on the magsafe is lit up, etc. After two fruitless, frustrating hours of fiddling, I was unable to get all four of power, displayport, and 2x USB connecting consistently enough for the dock to do its thing. I was asked to evaluate this product by my IT dept.
