got my shipping number today, should be here the day after tomorrow!

docks get firmware updates all the time. heck even the jsaux dock has gotten at least one(which you NEED to use windows to install) to make it work with lg tvs. my dell dock at work has had some to resolve usb 3.2x2 issues.

90 bucks really isnt a lot for a good dock, this whole thing is kinda showing who has and hasnt bought a laptop dock before. but thats not what this topic is about. all in all the jsaux docs aint bad, i have their cheapest one and it works well enough. I HATE how I have to use windows to update their docks firmware when they are selling a linux product, that alone put me off of buying from them again until they fix that.

that aside, this product doesnt look bad if you can get past it needing windows to be the best linux peripheral it can be, but DP 1.2 eh its hard to get excited about that when the steam dock has 1.4 which is way better. Plus the longer shipping time. I ordered my valve dock the day it launched and it'll be here tomorrow. so yeah if i ordered this jsaux dock today it would be longer shipping too. :/
