    I'm thinking of getting an external monitor for my old thinkpad 2 because I'd like a bigger monitor while I'm at home. Problem is I don't know if my thinkpad 2 is powerful enough to run an external monitor. What's the highest reasonable resolution monitor I can use with my thinkpad 2?

    What's a ThinkPad 2? If it's got a displayport, you can probably do 2560x1600.

    It's a Lenovo tablet with micro HDMI.
