my x60 should be coming in a few days. I am wondering if I would run 1680x1050 resolution on my x60?

right now, I can run it perfectly with my x31 (omega driver).

edit: dang...my laptop is delivering TODAY!!!

It sure can, I'm running my X60s right now with a 1680x1050 resolution external monitor. I didn't have to install anything special, just the standard video drivers for the integrated graphics.

The analogue signal quality is excellent, as well -- on both the laptop's own VGA port, and the one on the Ultrabase.

thank for the input. I went through alot to get 1680x1050 with my x31, so I just want to make sure it will with with x60. my 22" lcd is less than 1 month old. I would be [censored] if I can't get it to work with my new x60.

I gave up hope on dvi long time ago when I got the dock II for my x31 and found out it wouldn't work. on the other hand, VGA just work out fine for me, so I got used to living with it.

No problem at all. It can run even 1920x1200 via VGA.

how well man?

I know it struggles to run 2 displays (with the matrox dual head)

how about running just one big one?....what screen size is 1920x1200 anyway?

Usually 24"+ for desktop LCD.

I hope you heard of Dell 2405FPW.

I run it with a samsung 19 (and the thinkpad lcd)

usually outlook + trillian open on the side and ***whatever-it-may-be*** on the main screen.

I dont think gma 945 can handle 2+ laptop...am i wrong?

Perfectly acceptable to me, but some people are really picky and find a huge difference between VGA versus DVI.
