I use an IBM/Lenovo T43P in a docking station. The docking station has a
VGA port and a DVI port. This particular laptop has the ATI Mobility
FireGL V3200. Most video cards these days support dual monitors.

A slight hijack: for people who are using dual monitors, what
configuration do you use? Here at work, we have people using dual LCD
displays. I see the following configurations in use:
* Horizontal side-by-side, most often "tilted back" (top back,
bottom up) but sometimes also straight up and down. This is what I
use.
* Vertical side-by-side. A LCD monitor is easy to rotate, of course.
These are most often straight up and down. I tried it but it felt
cramped.
* Horizontal /one above the other/. I kid you not. I usually see
this configuration with the upper monitor tilted /forward/ (top
forward, bottom back) and the lower monitor tilted opposite. The
configuration has a very futuristic/spaceship look.
I have seen a few quad monitor setups, which are most likely from
multiple machines.
In my current configuration, I devote the left-hand panel to all my
normal work, and use the right-hand panel exclusively for e-mail. I
think that the biggest hurdle to overcome is switching my mindset.
I am
just not used to having this much screen space, so I do things in an
old-fashioned style. I often find myself switching between app
windows
rather than moving one off to the second display.
