Dell XPS 13 looks like my next laptop

To the question in the opening post:
"as long as I can find a way to connect to a monitor I'm gold"

Looks like you have 2 choices:

#1) Use the mini Displayport. Get a mini-Displayport to VGA (or DVI or HDMI) adapter to connect to your external monitor.

#2) Buy a USB-to-VGA (or USB-to-DVI) display adapter to drive the external monitor.

The timing of this one seems curious - Intel is releasing a fairly meaningful chipset bump within 1-2 months of the global release.

Dell is a strange co.

Cool.

Basically a MacBook Air with worse screen slower processor and BSODs, just to keep things fresh.

EDIT: For those who haven't seen them, it's 128GB SSD, 768p screen, and Core i5-2467M (1.6 GHz)

In all seriousness, you can pick those up all day long from the Apple refurb shop for $999. Install Windows and away you go...

LOL are you kidding? The bezel on the MBA alone is fugly. It's like 2 inches think or something. BEZEL ALERT!!!! BEZEL ALERT!!!!!
BSOD? Are we still living in 1999? Those rarely exist anymore. Besides OSX is far from spectacular. Just trying to balance out what is obviously an Apple fanboy's attempt at humor. I rarely feel inclined to comment but I hate when people make blatant/ignorant assumptions.
 
13.3" screen?

does it come with an oversize magnifying glass to be able to see it without straining your eyes?

I would never trade on any laptop with anything smaller than a 17" screen.

I usually have my laptop connected to a 24" screen. But its handy to go mobile with the laptop when I need to. Might have to hold off for Ivy Bridge to get the battery life though.
 
I have been using my my 14' inch ThinkPad notebook for automated trading for one year and I am happy with it. For display and back testing I hook up to a 24'inch ASUS monitor.
