    Hello NReview,

    Just bought one of my first personal laptops for my main pc and small business pc. Here are the specs:

    Toshiba F40-ST4101:
    Core™2 Duo Processor T7500 2.2GHz, 4MB L2 cache, 800MHz FSB
    Genuine Windows Vista® Ultimate
    2048MB PC5300 DDR2 667MHz SDRAM (1024MBx2)
    1GB Onboard Intel® Turbo Memory
    NVIDIA® GeForce™ 8600M GT w/256MB DDR2 + up to 256MB TurboCache
    160GB HDD (5400rpm, Serial-ATA)
    160GB 2nd HDD (5400rpm, Serial-ATA)
    HD DVD-ROM/DVD SuperMulti

    I also bought the laptop/projector stand thingy for it. Looks pretty good.

    Its a pretty nice machine. I have a few questions to start.

    Firstly I am planning on useing this as a DTR while at home so I would more than likely be setting up an external monitor to use (have a nice 24" 1920x1200 monitor) and a keyboard and mouse.

    - So my first question, can anyone recommend a keyboard and mouse for this pc? This will be used mainly at the house so everything is fair game. Some gaming will be done but again not much.

    - Secondly, as I stated above I would like to hook up multiple monitors to the pc ( I have the 24" and two 19" monitors) is there a way I can utilize these via DVI or even RGB?

    Thanks again everyone!

    Ok,
    I received a great recommendation on the mouse and keyboard thanks to NReview!

    Does anyone know how I could hook up my other monitors to my laptop via DVI? Thanks
