Hi I'm looking to buy a laptop for its portability, but I would like to use my actual desktop monitor with it, and also a desktop keyboard and a mouse when using at home. Is it feasible ? Does it require certain components on the desktop monitor or the laptop, keyboard etc ? thanks
No issue you can buy Any Laptop as per your requirements all the Laptop Have External Graphics Card Port Installed and they Support External Graphics Source like Monitor As well For Mouse and Keyword You can Use USB keyboard and Mouse it will work easily like your Desktop. Thanks
Juts using an external mouse is more than enough! Any how i like to use a Extra Keyboard and mouse if i am in Home
For laptop mouse, I'd recommend a Logitech Anywhere MX. I bought it at about $45 and was really satisfied with its performance.
I actually use my notebook for my main pc these days, just for the common sake of portability. Nothing to it really. I would suggest getting a laptop with an HDMI unit in conjunction with an HDMI monitor. As for keyboard and mouse, USB wireless would be the way to go to avoid clutter, so make sure to get a HUB just in case.
Sure, it's possible. I use it like that and even connect TV to my laptop to see some movie though SVideo when I'm travelling... Works nice.
