Default Best way to run 8 tables with a notebook

Hey guys,
I've been 4 tabling for a whille and recently moved up to 6 using 4 on my laptop with a bit of overlap (1400 by 1050 resolution)and my buddies crapy monitor to play the other 2. I'm going to start playing 8 tables and was wondering what the best thing was to do. If I buy a 1600X1200 monitor (looking at the Dell 2001) will it run ok if I hook it up to the laptop. I'm kinda new to trying to figure this out so any help would be sweet.
Thanks

What kind of videocard is in the laptop?
your monitors depth will only come into play if your videocard can actually support the depth....

Don't confuse depth with res.

I don't know what kind of video card its running, is there anyway to find out. Also is there any chance the video card would support a monitor with greater resolution then the actually screen on the monitor

My D600 won't do it. It's set up for multiple monitors (which I use) but it the resolution always reverts back to 1280x1024.
