do you have any info on PCMCIA graphics cards? I could find nothing on their exsistence. I would love to be able to use multi-monitor setups, but my graphics card will only clone the desktop

pretty much your only option is Margi's Display to go adapters. Biggest one out there is 4mb, pcmcia type II card. Runs on ebay for $200+(USD)

Other option, which is about 4 times the cost, is to get an expantion dock. They plug into any laptop via pcmcia, and basically breakout to a tower that has PCI slots. One of these units runs about $700 on average, and they vary in size from one PCI slot, to 7 or 8. Not worth the money at all.

Video expansion in laptops is always a big problem for people like us, and very few of us are willing to haul a tower+monitor+kb+mouse+etc around for a gig.

You make the call
