    As long as it has VGA or DVI out, it will.

    size is kinda irrelevant, it's the resolution you need to check. The dell monitor is 1920x1200 I believe, which vaio do you have?

    some people think the unit has to "drive" the monitor. Thats BS because all the unit has to do is output the signal.

    Getting a good signal quality in resolution 1900*1200 is a far stratch for a VGA port.

    it depends a bit on how picky you are and how well the signal is from your vaio.

    for best results you should have DVI port. only few laptops have that.

    I had my Vaio TZ on 1680*1050 and I was not 100% satisfied. although it was very workable.
