r61e Dual DVI Video Options

#1 Post by drumnfool » Sun Nov 11, 2012 8:47 am

Hello everyone. I am new to the forum and have a question. Recently I inherited an r61e Thinkpad which has no docking connector so a traditional docking station is out. I want to setup a dual dvi monitor workstation but have never worked with Tpads without a docking connector. Any suggestions for a solution that will give me the dual monitors (short of replacing the r61e)? Thanks!

Hello drumnfool, welcome to the forum.
Maybe one or two USB-to-DVI monitor adapters would do the job.
Collection = T500 - R400 - X300 - X200 - T61 (14" WXGA+) - T61 (14.1" SXGA+) - T60 (15" SXGA+) - X40 - T43p - T43 - T42p - A30P - 600E

Thanks for the welcome! Hmmm, I didn't know this type adapter existed. I will Google for more info but do you have any specific recommendations? (Mfr, model, etc)
