i am about to get a laptop, bc my dad is taking my tower away :bang head , well i have three questions....
1. i have a 19'' crt and a 17'' lcd and was wondering if there was any way to to dual monitor with those two screens with my laptop
2. is there any way to use my 2 monitors and the laptop screen for a 3 screen set up, thanks in advance
3. right now on my computer i have a 128 mb geforece ti 300 that does not support dual monitos and was wondering if there are any software programs that i could use to enable this, right now i have 2 monitors running, but they are clones of eachother.

you could do 1 with some laptops, I know my laptop does support dual monitors, you'd hafta chek the laptop before you got it though(or call 'n ask in the case of dell)

2) if you got a dell, a docking station with a pci card, 'n installed a pci video card, yes. but thats the only way(thought of doin it myself actually
3) nope
