		jwestbury on Oct 31, 2023 \| parent \| context \| favorite \| on: Apple unveils the new MacBook Pro featuring the M3... Quite a lot. A laptop screen + external monitor is an awkward solution. Display size and pixel density issues make it annoying to navigate the combined desktop environment. I have very little interest in doing so, personally -- if I'm using an external monitor, I'm generally never using my laptop screen.

You still can't use a second external monitor if you close the laptop screen on a base M1/M2/M3. So that's why they're asking how is it relevant here.

Right my point was that wanting to connect two monitors isn't some niche thing like laptop screen + 2 monitors which indeed would be more niche
