A good docking station plus KVM for a good work & home setup since the pandemic hit.

I can dock my work laptop when I work from home and have my two screens, ergonomic keyboard, mouse, webcam etc all attached in one go, then a single button on my desk to toggle to my gaming desktop and start playing without having to disconnect anything, reducing wear and tear on the connectors.

The next upgrade is Synergy (the software) so you can run both systems side by side with the same keyboard and mouse. Been using it for probably well over ten years now and it's become something I can't live without.

If I had a monitor to dedicate for each, sure, but I prefer using all my monitors for either systems I'm using, plus my work computer is on a dedicated network on a VPN tunnel so that wouldn't work well for that anyway.
