    hey guys i have a dell xps m-1710 .. and my current monitor is a 17 inch 1920 x 1200 ress monitor ..

    my graphics card cant take the 1200 P monitor no more so i have to run at low resses and it gets stretched out to the point of balhh .. anyways .. i found out that alien ware's m17 lap top has a 17 inch monitor that allows you to select a 1440 x 900 monitor or a 1920 x 1200 monitor before purchase

    so i figured since its a 17 inch .. can i buy there 1440 x 900 ress monitor and stick it in my lap top and it will work .. is the connnector the same as in mine ??
