That is an excellent idea! The laptop I have has 16 GB and my only real complaint is the size of the screen. So I need a wireless keyboard. I will check out Amazon today for the monitor and keyboard. Thank you so much for your suggestion. What type of cable do I need to plug the monitor into my laptop? I see there are two places on the side as well as 3 free USB ports.
