  2. Yes, avoid Toshiba. Been there, and very sorry for it.

    As for graphics ...
    If you're at work (that is ... NOT playing video games) then the GPU is largely irrelevant.
    The built-in graphics today ought not be compared with those of yesteryear.
    So there's little reason to pay for an outboard GPU in a business laptop.

  3. Yes, I definitely don't need gaming graphics, but I do need to be able to run two external monitors simultaneously. If that means an outboard graphics card, then that's what I will have to get.
