And no one gives a shit about your 30" monitor.]]>May 20th 2009 9:56AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/05/20/displaylink-boldly-enters-hd-realm-on-new-samsung-lapfit-display/http://www.engadget.com/2009/05/20/displaylink-boldly-enters-hd-realm-on-new-samsung-lapfit-display/May 20th 2009 11:59AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/05/20/displaylink-boldly-enters-hd-realm-on-new-samsung-lapfit-display/http://www.engadget.com/2009/05/20/displaylink-boldly-enters-hd-realm-on-new-samsung-lapfit-display/What I meant is: why only Full-HD resolution and not 2560x1600? DVI has been doing it for years and I expected a new standard to be better, not worse than existing solution. True, I'm using double-DVI cable, but I haven't heard of double-displaylink cables...]]>May 20th 2009 4:57PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/05/20/displaylink-boldly-enters-hd-realm-on-new-samsung-lapfit-display/http://www.engadget.com/2009/05/20/displaylink-boldly-enters-hd-realm-on-new-samsung-lapfit-display/
With it I can run a 3 screen setup from my Vaio Z, including the native Z's 1600x900 screen, a Dell 1920 x 1200, and the DisplayLink to an Asus 1680 x 1050.

I can't run full screen video through it, but I'm just grateful it allows me to use my Z as properly as I would a regular desktop PC. I can take my work with me when I travel, and have the benefits of multiple screens when I'm in the office.

This way, I program in Visual Studio on the Dell, preview on the Asus, and can have a video or blog or something running on the Z.

I dunno, just thought I should say something positive after the first few comments weren't very pleasant.]]>May 20th 2009 10:02AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/05/20/displaylink-boldly-enters-hd-realm-on-new-samsung-lapfit-display/http://www.engadget.com/2009/05/20/displaylink-boldly-enters-hd-realm-on-new-samsung-lapfit-display/May 20th 2009 10:47AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/05/20/displaylink-boldly-enters-hd-realm-on-new-samsung-lapfit-display/http://www.engadget.com/2009/05/20/displaylink-boldly-enters-hd-realm-on-new-samsung-lapfit-display/

But, in all seriousness, I'm interested in the answer to this as well. My guess would go in to it having quite a bit of lag. Then again, unless the screen is set to "span", all but the primary monitor tend to be ignored while gaming (speaking from Half Life/Halo/Starcraft experiences).]]>May 20th 2009 12:06PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/05/20/displaylink-boldly-enters-hd-realm-on-new-samsung-lapfit-display/http://www.engadget.com/2009/05/20/displaylink-boldly-enters-hd-realm-on-new-samsung-lapfit-display/May 20th 2009 2:16PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/05/20/displaylink-boldly-enters-hd-realm-on-new-samsung-lapfit-display/http://www.engadget.com/2009/05/20/displaylink-boldly-enters-hd-realm-on-new-samsung-lapfit-display/May 20th 2009 2:42PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/05/20/displaylink-boldly-enters-hd-realm-on-new-samsung-lapfit-display/http://www.engadget.com/2009/05/20/displaylink-boldly-enters-hd-realm-on-new-samsung-lapfit-display/
I know full-screen flash video can run choppy even on core2 duo machines sometimes but I'm wondering if these work worse for flash than a native display.]]>May 21st 2009 3:10AM
