    Does anyone know what the max output resolution for the vga port is?
    (Intel Graphics Media Accelerator 4500MHD)
    I'm considering buying one to replace my Dell Latitude E6400. Though the small screen is what I want for on the go, I would like to know how large a monitor I can expect to be able to hook up.

    I believe the x200s is officially listed as supporting a monitor up to 2048x1536 (or 1920x1200) over VGA. Using DisplayPort from the Ultrabase you should be able to drive a 2560x1600 display as well. Several people have driven two 24" 1920x1200 displays [1 via DisplayPort→DVI, 1 via VGA, no display on the laptop] simultaneously using the Ultrabase.

    However, I have never tested anything larger than 1680x1050 or 1920x1080 on my x200T.
