Windows 8 + DisplayLink = No Video

So I tried the most recent DL software but this time on a Tarus ACP70US7 dock, and this time around it didn't break the ability to play videos when the dock was disconnected, this time it simply didn't offer any type of multiple monitor support. A bit confused how they could replace something that was working but broke with a version that isn't broke but just doesn't work.

So while the idea of Display Link driven USB 3 docks is attractive, it seems that this isn't a solution that I can recommend for our company moving forward as there are simply too many bugs and issues.
