Q: QuestionCan I connect it to a monitor(3 answers)
A: AnswerApparently, BogleheadsGuide is unaware of the newest invention, the DisplayPort (well, new as of 2006), which this device has, and allows connection to an external monitor. Also, USB 3.0 ports differ in their capabilities, so it may or may not also be usable for another monitor. My advice is to check the Microsoft website, or the manual.Answered by luislast
