I'm looking for a laptop for software development and general-purpose use that has a fast CPU and can support a dual-monitor configuration that includes a high resolution external monitor requiring dual-link dvi.
Some of the "gotchas" I have encountered are "hybrid" GPU setups that have limitations on which GPU can be used to drive the external display, and limitations on GPUs regarding dual-link dvi.
I need something that works well with Linux, is likely to continue to work well, and has no "gotchas" regarding a high resolution external monitor in use simultaneously with the internal monitor.
