	I understand the Texas Instruments Travelmate 3000 supports
1024x768 through the external monitor connection, but still only 640x480
on the laptop screen.

	Speaking of external monitor connections, does anyone know of a
notebook that supports *simultaneous* display through the onboard and
external monitors? The notebook players are missing the boat on this one.
Toshiba showed it could be done on their larger laptops, so what's the
problem?
