Four Screens on my desk
Mar 17th, 2008 by Li Zhao
This weekend I spend some time cleaning up my ever cluttered desk and finally can put up my docking station for my T60. I purchased the docking station for few months already and didn’t have the chance to set it up yet. I put the docking station next to my dual monitors and added an old monitor next to it, so I can get dual screens on the laptop as well. Finally, I use synergy to control the 4 screens with 1 keyboards and mouse.
Update:
Thanks to my company’s computers liquidation sale, I was able to purchases 2 17″ LCD monitor and now I have a real 4 screens setup. Of course, Scott felt that he needs to make me feel shameful and posted on his blog about his 8 screens setup. Even if I want to, my desk physically can’t fit any more monitors.
Muahahahahahahah!!!

Also, why does the picture up there not show all 4??
You need to click on the thumbnail to see the screens.
I am seeking a way to get my T60 that I use with a Dock to be able to utilize (2) external monitors. I dont care to use my display on the laptop. It sounds as if you have accomplished this, what do i need to do the same? xxxxxxxxxxx@gmail.com
Hi Coach,
I’m not going to email you, but this is the dock that I have
“IBM Lenovo T60 Z60 dock port replicator 2504-10U”. I bought it from ebay for $110. The back of the dock has a DVI connection and a VGA connector. The way I have it set up is one monitor uses the DVI connection, since it can support both, and the other one uses the VGA connector. The T60 will the be able to display to both monitors.
