I would prefer to use the Dell as the dell docking stations are easy to come by and have a VGA and DVI port.
Which models (if any) of dell laptop can support a Dual display with extended desktop?

But if this is a call center, that seems like a very expensive way to go... why not use thin clients and a remote desktop server (terminal server?)

In answer to the questions "why not thin clients?" It is because we are in Africa and it means the call centre operators can take their laptop home at the end of their shift and more importantly when the power surges or cuts we only have to have a decent UPS on the switch gear and Vsat. Also we are not wanting a single point of failure. I am also not intending purchasing new laptops either, so a bunch of used lattitudes and port replicators is a very cost effective way to equip the call centre. I have lattitudes here and could never get them to work with both monitors... NOW thanks to you guys I realise that I needed to close the screen for the second mmonitor to work (Duh!) So will get on testing and get back to you.
Again thanks for all the input, and also the heads up on the Tripp Lite 4-Port DisplayPort to HDMI Multi Stream Transport Hub.
I am new to the EE new interface. How do I give you all points do I just press the assisted solution button?
Yes, you select assist for these. Please skip mine because I was just commenting on Ramin's answer

A laptop or notebook is a portable personal computer with a clamshell form factor, suitable for mobile use. Although originally there was a distinction between laptops and notebooks, the former being bigger and heavier than the latter, there is often no longer any difference. Laptops are commonly used in a variety of settings, such as at work, in education, and for personal multimedia. A laptop combines the components, inputs, outputs and capabilities of a desktop computer, including the display screen, speakers, a keyboard, and pointing devices (such as a touchpad or trackpad) into a single unit. The device can be powered either from a rechargeable battery or by mains electricity from an AC adapter.
