    I have an X61 laptop attached to a 20.1 inch widescreen dell monitor. The widescreen has a larger resolution than the native resolution of the laptop monitor.

    My problem is that when I disconnect the laptop from the monitor I have to resize all the windows and rearrange the deskop to fit the smaller screen and then do the exact same thing when I reconnect the larger screen.

    Is there a utility or tip that would allow me to automatically resize everything when I connect or disconnect a monitor?
