    I'm seriously considering the dv6700t (w/512MB 8400 GS). I will be using it for Photoshop, Flash, video editing, etc. I will have two 2007FPb monitors with DVI and VGA inputs. My problem is that I want to connect both to my laptop.

    I've looked at the usb > vga add-ons and the DisplayLink/USBSync devices, but none are recommended for anything more than docs and web browsing...no graphics or video work.

    Is it possible to attach two LCD monitors to the HP (or any laptop with similar setup...also considering the XPS M1530) natively? What do I need to accomplish it? I don't want to use the laptop screen at work.

    Thanks...
