    Can the Gateway NV55S03u use a Docking Station?

    Does it have a Docking Station Port on the bottom?

    That is the main problem, it does not. And I am not sure if the cost to add one will be worth it. Thanks

    Probably not. You'd at least need a new motherboard and case with the built-in port. ;)

    I have seen so-called "Universal Docking Stations" but, it's not a true drop-your-laptop-on-it Docking Station. For example Plugable UD-3000 USB 3.0 Universal Docking Station
