    Does anyone make a laptop with dual VGA outputs, or can it be otherwise accomplished? I want to run two matching monitors, as I presently do with a desktop/dual head VGA card....is this even possible?

    The old Matrox company came out with an external graphics card that allows the external VGA of some laptops to view two monitors as one. Not quite the same effect, but similar. Additionally, Thinkpad has a docking station with a PCI express card slot that will take a desktop type dual graphics card. I have been looking without luck for something more affordable than the latter, but more like a real dual head card than the former.



    Hope this helps
