X200/Ultrabase - confirmed does good job driving 2 monitors
Posted: Tue Feb 03, 2009 11:33 pm
22" 1680x 1050 Dell and 19" 1280 x 1024 Dell Ultrasharp.
The X200/Ultrabase combination outputs video to the dual monitor setup just as well or maybe even better than office Quadro NVS equipped Optiplex 755. The Ultrabase needs a Displayport >>DVI adapter to drive one monitor, the other driven from the VGA out.
Overall the X200/Ultrabase does everything as good or better than office Optiplex machine plus easy to carry around and 9cell battery gives about 8 hours use each charge. This setup replaces 3 machines for me: office desktop, home desktop and T61 I used to lug around.
Starting with P133 Thinkpad and all machines since, this is the best. Very happy.
Just need to add some storage when a good drive for the ExpressCard slot becomes available. Another 64+ gb would do it. Any suggestions?
X200: 2gb RAM, 160gb/7200rpm, 2gb turbo memory, Vista Business SP2 Beta
