offset 0 Posted August 3, 2008 Share Posted August 3, 2008 hey, can anyone help me with this? I'm thinking about buying a laptop for college, but i cant find one that will run two seperate monitors. I'm looking for a decent laptop that can run two monitors at 1600x1200 res. So far all I can find are at least $2000, which is a bit too expensive. Does anyone know what I should be looking at?

uncooper 1 Posted August 3, 2008 Share Posted August 3, 2008 Just get whatever laptop you want, and a display like http://tinyurl.com/55aosz. All laptops should have a video out that should be able to run a range of resolutions. Link to post Share on other sites
Napa_Don 688 Posted August 3, 2008 Share Posted August 3, 2008 Yeah pretty much every laptop ever can run dual displays. Link to post Share on other sites

bull62 0 Posted August 3, 2008 Share Posted August 3, 2008 You can get laptops with a 17" widescreen with 1920x1200 res. You can change your display to this on most Dells. Inspiron 1720 for less than a grand. Link to post Share on other sites
