The Matrox solution is very neat I use the dual version at work with two monitors and Laptop giving the third. The Triple head solution will allow you to have 4 including the laptop.
The only downside to the Matrox solution is it treats all the additional monitors (excluding notebook LCD) as one monitor so progs like Ultramon don't work as you might expect. Also the max resolution for each individual monitor is 1280x1024. I have two viewsonic 1280x1024 monitors at work and the quality is perfect. -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of j maccraw Sent: Saturday, March 08, 2008 9:29 PM To: [email protected] Subject: Re: [H] Multiple monitors from laptop Matrox has Dual & Triple head in both analog & digital last time I "drooled" over the page. Trick is your video card has to be a able to drive a wide enough screen size to equal the total desktop size.
