Multiple monitors for a laptop?

I am looking for an inexpensive way to attach multiple external monitors to my laptop. I have explored a number of products (Matrox DualHead2Go, Magma ExpressBox using pci video card, VTBook video card) but don't have enough experience to make a sound judgement. I want to be able to keep the laptop closed and use only external, same size monitors. Has anyone had experience with this that could make a suggestion?|||Looking at the DualHead2Go, it is only going to support up to 2x 1280 by 1024. Which is going to be limited if you want to get bigger or wide LCDs.



Look at the options available with a full dock from the laptop manufacturer.



Many laptop chipsets can support multiple monitors A full dock may have dual head outputs that would allow you to control two monitors using the laptop's video chipset. Also you can attach a decent keyboard and mouse without having to keep plugging and unplugging them.



Call your laptop manufacturer and ask if the dock has dual outputs, if it does then ask if your laptop will support both.|||Get a docking station if it's that important to you!
