I just hope that they can keep the price down, it's predecessor was too expensive!

True. They should double that gaming dock as a laptop cooler as well.....

[Good Value Mini Dock]

Looks like good value for the Mini Dock at just $169!  There's a few things I think could be better though:
1) The laptop has to sit on the dock - it looks too high and at quite an extreme angle - might not be comfortable to use laptop keyboard.  Would have been better to just have a cable connect to the dock so you can use the laptop on a desk like normal.
2) Only a 330W adapter for the Mini Dock.  OK, most graphics cards are about 250W, but it would have been useful to have had a 660W adapter so an sli based single card could be used, or allowing for severe overclocking of a single card.

Finally, a solution for a gaming dock that's better value & a better design than an additional mini-tower.
Hopefully, other manufacturers follow their lead.
