Default Triple Monitor Set up from Laptop

Hey Guys,

I currently have a dual monitor set up from my laptop (Laptop + Monitor connected through VGA). I have another monitor that I'd like to connect to my laptop, any suggestions on the best way to go about doing this? I saw that some VGA-->USB adapters are available, is this practical?

I do not think this is possible without an additional video card.

depending on what sort of expansion card slots you have (PCMCIA, ExpressCard, etc.) you should be able to obtain a graphics plug that'll fit in there.

you can then plug another monitor into that.
