Note from Moderator: No photos for anything unless you put a warning in the subject line.

Photo is for illustration, not a photo of the unit I'm selling (provided on request, though).

What this quoted description didn't mention that this small port replicator also sets the ThinkPad at a comfortable angle for ergonomic typing, and provides cooling enhancement by lifting the laptop's bottom off the desk.

Wow, all that and a standard Kensington security cable port.
