Multi-Display Graphics Suites Compared 249
Bender writes "There's an interesting comparison at TR between the major graphics players' multi-desktop software/hardware suites, like NVIDIA's nView and Matrox DualHead. These suites provide monitor positioning, application-level window memory, multiple virtual desktops, and the like. This is necessarily a Windows-centric comparison, but it's interesting to consider how Linux, X, and various desktop managers would match up with these solutions in terms of features and abilities."

Lucky stiff.

I have 2 21" monitors (ViewSonic p810s) on a Matrox G450... I've been using this setup for maybe 4 years (at work, so I'm in front of them all day)... I'm still waiting to develop some cool super powers...

Secondly, this article is comparing the multimonitor abilities of these various graphic cards against each other. It doesn't really make sense to throw a Mac in the mix, since you're changing more than one variable.
