Great Thread, thanks everyone who contributed.

Hey, maybe we can add something about whether the M200 is compatible with the Advanced Port Replicator II (the older version) or only APR III. Most of the laptops compatible with II are also compatible with III so I would assume the M200 is backwards compatible with II. WNewquay?

After trying out my M200 with the Advanced Port Replicator II I am proud to announce the M200 physically cannot fit (there's some plastic that prevents you from placing the M200 down cause on past notebooks the docking port was closer to the edge) in the Replicator II although I KNOW if I tried breaking part of the useless plastic off and got it to fit it would work. OH WELL. Guess it's $160 out the door for me.

"Watch that Pen Clip! - humourous (non-official) addendum to the manual" Ha, Ha. My problem with any pen-digitizer or regular.

FYI the link for the toshiba support site is broken in the original FAQ:

Hi all,
I have created couple disassembly guides for Toshiba Portege M200 and Toshiba Portege M205. I hope they would be helpful for you:
