    Does FZ190 with intel x3100 have HDMI or DVI ports, and how essential it is considering that it should be future proof for atleast a couple years.
    Also, does x3100 support dual monitor. I've seen it on a comp. with nvidia, where if you connect it to a projector, then you can show some part on the projector while viewing something else on the laptop screen.

    the intel x3100 does not support the HDMI port, but you still have an VGA output for dual monitors. so yes you can dual monitor with your x3100 but with les cuality than with the HDMI port, but yes you can.

    i recomend you to get the nvidia 8400GT card with your FZ190 because the HDMI port is a big deal... you can output video and sound at the same time to a HDTV and it has way better quality than a VGA port... the x3100 does not have even a DVI port so if i where u ill consider adding the nvidia card
