I had a T420 Thinkpad and was longing for the dock with the PCIe slot. Why? Because the IGP of the i7 was bad and I wanted to play some games, while traveling. It was PCIe 1x and single slot, but it'd would have been great anyways. I went for an eGPU adapter and played Bad Company 2 on a 9600GT without issues. Wild times..
