Have a person wanting to run 3 monitors on his Dell Inspiron 8600. It has a single VGA out. Right now he runs a 19" Samsung LCD and the notebook screen itself.
What's the best/most cost effective way to go around getting it to where he can use 2 external monitors AND the notebook screen. I know with the docking stations you can hook up 2 external monitors, but the laptop one is disabled.
There some sort of USB or PCMCIA card that allows this? Well rather anything other than the Sidecar? I mean the Sidecar is pretty cool, but $1300 is kinda stout just to add another $200 19" monitor.
