I will be receiving me Dell Studio 1537 laptop tomorrow. I think I will be ditching (selling) my main rig since I don't really game (except on PS3) and really only do HD video editing on it (which I can do on this Studio 1537).

I also have 2 x Dell 20" E207WFP's that I use on my main rig right now. Now, if I sell off my main rig, I want to still be able to use my Dual monitor setup. This Dell 1537 has an HDMI and VGA out. Is there some way I can utilize both of these monitors in an "extended screen" mode using just the HDMI port (all digital instead of using the vga analog signal)? If so, what do I need and how can I manage this?

Thanks for your help in advance!

I've never known of a laptop that could do 3 monitors, or that could shut off it's main LCD and power 2 external monitors. I'm not big on laptops, though, but thought I'd offer that since you're bumping for an answer... :)

I use a Matrox TripleHead2Go Digital at work....but I don't have the money to purchase one of these for home use.
