Ok I need a new computer. I am currently running off a Athlon 550mhz. I have two Dell 2001fp's operating off my matrox g400 dualhead videocard.

I want to get a laptop because it will be the most practical for me in the future. I've been looking at the Dell 9300. Is it possible to hook up my two monitors to this laptop? Does it require any upgrades?

Yes, it's possible. No upgrades necessary.

It rules. Get it.

the specs indicate it has a d-sub AND a DVI connection (as well as svideo). whether or not they will send different signals I do not know. why dontcha call dell and ask?

The 9300 will run two external monitors at once but not with the LCD panel because that would be 3 displays and it can only handle 2 at once.
