A:AnswerThis HP EliteBook will have a DisplayPort and VGA port but not a HDMI port. You will need to get a DisplayPort to HDMI adapter to use it with a HDMI monitor.
A:AnswerThere are four common types of video output ports: VGA, DVI-D, DisplayPort, and HDMI. This computer has a VGA and a DisplayPort output, so if your monitor has either of those, you'll just need the cable to go between them. If your monitor only has HDMI and/or DVI-D, you'll need an adapter. Without knowing the model number of the monitor, it's impossible to give you more specific information.
A:AnswerHello! Thank you for your question!

A:AnswerYes, you should have no problem installing Ubuntu or other Linux versions. Because of the limited amount of storage, you may want to format the hard drive and have a single Linux partition instead of having a dual boot Windows/Linux installation.
A:AnswerThere is a wide slot labeled 'SC.' I have no idea what that is. I bought a stand-alone device for reading SD cards that works great. Suggest you do the same for your card. This laptop is really fast and reliable. Best of four used PCs I've bought--all from Best Buy. First desktop lasted 10 years!!! Good luck.
A:AnswerThis Elitebook will run games that do not require a dedicated graphics processor. It is upgradable with regard to memory and storage but cannot be upgraded to add a graphics card.
A:AnswerThank you for the question. Connections are on the sides, not under the laptop. You can connect a dock but note that this laptop charges via USB 3.
