Switching laptopscreen (WXGA) to external LCDscreen (X)GA

Hello,

I consider to buy a laptop with a small WXGA screen (11-12 inch).
Because i do not like the modern reflective screens (and you can
hardly find 'normal' screens) i plan to use when at home a 4:3 screen
with a higher resolution.

Do i, when connecting the external screen and turning the internal
screen off, need to change all kind of screen settings or does a
(modern) laptop recognise the screen and set the resolution
automatically including the aspectratio?

Bu
