Can I connect my laptop with external monitor ??

[esumitkumar]

I am very fond of watching movies..but I have only 14" Acer lappu
Can I connect a bigger (22" or 24") LCD monitor to my laptop and see movies or do some word editing while my laptop lid is open ?

If yes then how ? Also will both the small 14" and 22" will be showing display when I do some word editing ?

Does yuour laptop have a VGA/DVI out? If so you can but please check that your graphics chip can support the resolution of the screen that you are planning to buy.

A dual monitor set up is fantastic - I have been using this for more than 5 years at home and at work [with a desktop] and will never go back to a single screen again.
