EVGA's dual-LCD InterView display starts shipping
EVGA's unusual dual-LCD InterView display certainly isn't for everybody, but if you've got a desk-mate that you're constantly sharing a monitor with you'll no doubt be pleased to know that it's now finally available to order. Now selling for as low as $624.99 (or $640 list price), the monitor packs dual 17-inch LCDs that can either be used in a screen-spanning mode for an extra-wide 34-inch display, or be rotated and automatically reoriented for folks sitting across form each other. Unfortunately, each display packs a somewhat lackluster 1,440 x 990 resolution, and you'll of course have to make sure you have dual VGA or DVI inputs if you want to run it from a single computer. That'll no doubt be a small trade-off to some folks, however, especially considering there aren't exactly a ton of competitors to the InterView at the moment.[Via ComputerMonger]
The Queue: I love London
Welcome back to The Queue, WoW Insider's daily Q&A column where the WoW Insider team answers your questions about the World of Warcraft. Alex Ziebart will be your host today.One of our questions today comes from a reader who's moving to London for a couple of months, and I just wanted to take a moment to say that I've always wanted to go there. Consider yourself very, very lucky! London has all kinds of great things I've always wanted to see, like Big Ben, Stonehenge, the Eiffel Tower, the Parthenon, and Papah?naumoku?kea. One day, hopefully, I'll get to go myself!Let's get started, hm?SithVicious asked a pair of questions..."Will Blizzard ever allow cross server chat?"
How to get multi-monitors to work well with World of Warcraft
Did you ever want to see what Azeroth would look like if you could push all of those toolbars to some other screen? Amanda Rivera over at our sister site, WoW Insider, did. She's recently conquered getting your computer to display World of Warcraft on one screen and your toolbars on the other, giving you a clear picture of the beauty of Azeroth without all of those clumsy bars.The only downside to this technique is that the game can really only be rendered on one monitor and not across two full monitors. Rendering across two monitors causes your character, who would be standing in the middle of the two monitors, to be annoyingly split across both of them. Now, if you only had the expensive gaming rig to support those three monitors.
SOYO's GVLM1728 and GVLM1928, the dazzling dual-displays
In what appears to be the conjoined twins of monitors, SOYO has just announced two models of dual-screen LCDs -- two 17-inch (or 19-inch) monitors attached at the side, but with a single base. Both models, the GVLM1728 and the GVLM1928, pack a 2560 x 1024 native resolution, 8ms response time, and 300 nits (that's candelas per square meter) of brightness. The beefier of the two comes in at $1200, while the 17-incher will set you back an even grand. Sure, it's not quite as good as the TripleHead2Go, but it'll be a bit less expensive than buying a trio of monitors and that VGA connector.
