Of course once you get to that point desktop space is probably the biggest constraint.]]>Dec 19th 2005 2:38AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2005/11/08/matrox-dualhead2go-drives-two-monitors-off-one-video-card/http://www.engadget.com/2005/11/08/matrox-dualhead2go-drives-two-monitors-off-one-video-card/Dec 19th 2005 2:38AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2005/11/08/matrox-dualhead2go-drives-two-monitors-off-one-video-card/http://www.engadget.com/2005/11/08/matrox-dualhead2go-drives-two-monitors-off-one-video-card/Dec 19th 2005 2:38AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2005/11/08/matrox-dualhead2go-drives-two-monitors-off-one-video-card/http://www.engadget.com/2005/11/08/matrox-dualhead2go-drives-two-monitors-off-one-video-card/Dec 19th 2005 2:38AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2005/11/08/matrox-dualhead2go-drives-two-monitors-off-one-video-card/http://www.engadget.com/2005/11/08/matrox-dualhead2go-drives-two-monitors-off-one-video-card/
And I can think of two good markets for this product: someone who may be giving a highly graphical presentation (motion graphics /design), a mobile DJ using final scratch and wishing to show some larger visual effects on two projectors or monitors.]]>Dec 19th 2005 2:38AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2005/11/08/matrox-dualhead2go-drives-two-monitors-off-one-video-card/http://www.engadget.com/2005/11/08/matrox-dualhead2go-drives-two-monitors-off-one-video-card/
Does it involve duct tape? It's got to involve duct tape...]]>Dec 19th 2005 2:38AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2005/11/08/matrox-dualhead2go-drives-two-monitors-off-one-video-card/http://www.engadget.com/2005/11/08/matrox-dualhead2go-drives-two-monitors-off-one-video-card/Dec 19th 2005 2:38AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2005/11/08/matrox-dualhead2go-drives-two-monitors-off-one-video-card/http://www.engadget.com/2005/11/08/matrox-dualhead2go-drives-two-monitors-off-one-video-card/
"Will DualHead2Go work with an OS other than Windows XP and Windows 2000?
Though there is no official support for Mac computers at this time, preliminary testing shows that basic DualHead2Go functionality is available on most Apple Powerbook laptops. Matrox is continuously testing new devices and working on expanding DualHead2Go compatibility"
Well at least there's hope. Mac Mini users might also want to look at the Tritton USB 2.0 SVGA adapter which they are promising to make Mac friendly someday.]]>Dec 19th 2005 2:38AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2005/11/08/matrox-dualhead2go-drives-two-monitors-off-one-video-card/http://www.engadget.com/2005/11/08/matrox-dualhead2go-drives-two-monitors-off-one-video-card/Dec 19th 2005 2:38AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2005/11/08/matrox-dualhead2go-drives-two-monitors-off-one-video-card/http://www.engadget.com/2005/11/08/matrox-dualhead2go-drives-two-monitors-off-one-video-card/Dec 19th 2005 2:38AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2005/11/08/matrox-dualhead2go-drives-two-monitors-off-one-video-card/http://www.engadget.com/2005/11/08/matrox-dualhead2go-drives-two-monitors-off-one-video-card/Dec 19th 2005 2:38AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2005/11/08/matrox-dualhead2go-drives-two-monitors-off-one-video-card/http://www.engadget.com/2005/11/08/matrox-dualhead2go-drives-two-monitors-off-one-video-card/]]>Dec 19th 2005 2:38AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2005/11/08/matrox-dualhead2go-drives-two-monitors-off-one-video-card/http://www.engadget.com/2005/11/08/matrox-dualhead2go-drives-two-monitors-off-one-video-card/

High end graphics cards typically will allow unified 3d acceleration across only two displays. Using two of these devices on a dual port video card will allow you to paint a 3d accelerated canvas across four monitors... or if you want, 8 monitors with a pair of nvidia cards on one of those nice motherboards with dual pci-e 16x slots.

I really can't wait for it!

It would even be better if you could choose for them to work vertically or horizontally... "cheap" way to have a display matrix!!]]>Dec 19th 2005 2:38AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2005/11/08/matrox-dualhead2go-drives-two-monitors-off-one-video-card/http://www.engadget.com/2005/11/08/matrox-dualhead2go-drives-two-monitors-off-one-video-card/Dec 19th 2005 2:38AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2005/11/08/matrox-dualhead2go-drives-two-monitors-off-one-video-card/http://www.engadget.com/2005/11/08/matrox-dualhead2go-drives-two-monitors-off-one-video-card/Dec 19th 2005 2:38AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2005/11/08/matrox-dualhead2go-drives-two-monitors-off-one-video-card/http://www.engadget.com/2005/11/08/matrox-dualhead2go-drives-two-monitors-off-one-video-card/...and the tool is not yet available. They advise to "check back soon." And for us corporate types that get Dell's there are only 9 models on the list. I hope the list continues to grow, cause I want one and my model (D400) is not on the list.]]>Dec 19th 2005 2:38AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2005/11/08/matrox-dualhead2go-drives-two-monitors-off-one-video-card/http://www.engadget.com/2005/11/08/matrox-dualhead2go-drives-two-monitors-off-one-video-card/
MaxiVista turns your Laptop PC into a second display.

So you get twice the viewing space without the need to buy costly hardware.

It is available here: www.maxivista.com

I use it on a Dell Inspiron 1100 hooked up to 2 laptops (mounted upside down) and a desktop. That's 4 monitors off one laptop.]]>Dec 19th 2005 2:38AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2005/11/08/matrox-dualhead2go-drives-two-monitors-off-one-video-card/http://www.engadget.com/2005/11/08/matrox-dualhead2go-drives-two-monitors-off-one-video-card/Dec 19th 2005 2:38AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2005/11/08/matrox-dualhead2go-drives-two-monitors-off-one-video-card/http://www.engadget.com/2005/11/08/matrox-dualhead2go-drives-two-monitors-off-one-video-card/Dec 19th 2005 2:38AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2005/11/08/matrox-dualhead2go-drives-two-monitors-off-one-video-card/http://www.engadget.com/2005/11/08/matrox-dualhead2go-drives-two-monitors-off-one-video-card/

I agree with what has already been said. VillageTronic's VTBook is better for most if you have a pc card slot as it does super high resolution AND Tritton USB device supports up to SXGA, too.]]>Dec 19th 2005 2:38AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2005/11/08/matrox-dualhead2go-drives-two-monitors-off-one-video-card/http://www.engadget.com/2005/11/08/matrox-dualhead2go-drives-two-monitors-off-one-video-card/Dec 19th 2005 2:38AM
