Does anyone know what that symbol means? All the other ports are obvious -- monitor, printer, headphones et cetera but this one is a mystery. I'd like to plug a keyboard into it but it doesn't have a port for that. Just this mysterious thing that will not accomodate a keyboard wire.

Impossible to tell without a description of the actual port or the model of your laptop. {.....} isn't a standard port icon AFAIK.

Most laptops have some kind of proprietary connector to support an optional docking station.

Why not just hook up a keyboard using a USB port? You must have USB on it...
