Wide Lcd
I will connect my laptop to a 19" lcd monitor (wide). will the resolution be ok?

the resolution of my laptop is 1280x800. Will it be ok to connect it to a 19" lcd monitor (wide) with a maximum resolution of 1440x900. I will use the lcd as my monitor because the laptop monitor is small for me. what is maximum resolution by the way? thank you.

It all depends on the capabilities of the Graphics Chip in the laptop. The built in LCD does not effect external Monitors. Overall you should be ok with using your 19" LCD
