We tested this configuration, and decided against it due to performance
limitations. We went instead with an XPS 1210 model (has since been
replaced). This also has some limitations (i.e. a non-traditional dock),
but has better performance for the size.

Subject: [MSUNAG] Latitude D430 for Every Day use
Anybody out there have a user that uses one of those ultralight Lat D430
in a docking station, regular lcd monitor, keyboard and mouse for every
day use with Email, Web, Word and Excel up at once.
How does that perform as an main machine used every day? Or would
people who attempted to use this model that way recommend against this
because the performance suffers?
