Must be an optional setting.

Worth checking that any potential purchase allows it to do both clone of
your desktop (for presentations) and multiple monitor (for dual screen
working)

I saw a Vaio in John Lewis for under ?700 can't remember the model
though

I'm just gtting used to my triple screen display at the moment:

two AG neovo and one LG TFT running off Matrox Dual head and an old 3dfx
Voodoo PCI card.

I'm firmly convinced that multidisplay is better than a big display
(except for games)
