Vaio Dock to Be compatible with Mac too?

by linathael. - 16/09/2008 10:39:50 CEST
Couple of days ago, we were reporting about the Sony Vaio dock, an elegant and powerful device to enhance capabilities of ultra portable notebook. We were initially thinking that the MacBook Air could not benefit from such peripheral as it was using the DisplayLink port and dedicated drivers, not officially supported/developed by Apple for Mac OS X.
Thanks to Patrick Stein who helped DisplayLink to develop a generic Mac driver, one could theoritically use such dock with the MacBook Air:
If the Sony Vaio dock contains the DisplayLink chips (and it does), then it should work with the Displaylink generic Mac driver which can be downloaded from the web site of DisplayLink.
We expect to test such compatibility as soon as possible, depending if Sony Europe will agree to send us a sample for a test.
