hi everybody,
my ideal trading setup has been so far a desktop with four screens and I am now curious about using a laptop instead.
Can anybody share his/her experience trading with a laptop and multiple screens and what hardware layout you chose ?
thank you

Can you help answer these questions from other members on NexusFi?
I use a laptop with 2 additional external monitors for a total of 3 monitors. One of the external monitors is connected to the built-in vga output of the laptop to one external monitor, and the other external monitor is connected via USB using a usb to vga adapter ( Micro Center - SIIG USB 2.0 to VGA Adapter JU-VG0012-S1)

I bought a Pro license that allows up to four screens - pretty neat and works well (though I have GigE switches and all wired machines though I've even used it to connect to WiFi-connected laptops as well).
Not a true dedicated hardware solution, but thought I'd throw in a "satisfied customer" software-based offering.
