I retired two years ago as a medical transcriptionist who used a company-supplied PC at home as well as a laptop which allowed me to work remotely at my girlfriend’s (and later fiancée’s) home on weekends. In my situation, the best solution was two cheap generic docking stations, also known as port replicators. It let me connect at each end with a single USB connection and one power connection, saving wear and tear on the laptop USB ports and making setup possible in minutes. Thing is, using a docking station (as opposed to a USB hub) lets each peripheral use its native connection—RJ-45, VGA/HDMI, PS-2, speakers, etc.—so there is no latency. I have used this setup for years. For instance, I no longer work, but took part of this rig on a cruise with me.
