    Hello,
    I would like to get my Mom an external monitor for her M1210. She uses it to read documents, a lot of documents and a larger screen would be nice. I've searched here and talked to my buddy about it without figuring out what would work. Any help would be appreciated.

    Her M1210 has the T7200 2ghz processor and the 945GM Express Chipset. VGA & S-Video outputs. Dell has the ST2210 monitor on sale today
    DELL Dell Daily Deal - ST2210 21.5-inch Widescreen Flat Panel Monitor with 1-Year Warranty : Computer Monitors: Flat Panel LCD Monitor Display | Dell

    Would it be a good fit?

    Thank you,
    Dan

    Thank you. Can I ask why you're so sure? Is/was the 945GM Express Chipset a good one?

    As I said, it's for my Mom, and she's in a different state, so I don't want there to be any mistakes.

    Thank you,
    Dan
