Will my Port Replicator work with a new Toshiba laptop?

Archived from groups: comp.sys.laptops (More info?)

A while back, I bought a Toshiba port replicator to dock my Portege 4010
laptop with. I'm ready for a new Toshiba laptop now, and wanted to know if
the newer Toshiba laptops would work with my existing port replicator.

any ideas?
