Matrox TripleHead2Go - Three screens!

Wednesday, April 12th, 2006

TripleHead2GoNow I can see this being the “must have” hardware for 2006 – the Matrox TripleHead2Go box allows you to hook up three 19–inch monitors to any PC to transform it into a three-screen monster system capable of 3840×1024.  In case you’re wondering, three 19–inch monitors will give you a massive 45–inch diagonal viewing area!

TripleHead2GoYou don’t need a monster system to take advantage of the TripleHead2Go – it can be attached to any PC – desktop or laptop.  The TripleHead2Go is also small – palm-sized – making it a portable solution (well, apart from having to cart around three screens!).

TripleHead2GoThe beauty of the TripleHead2Go is that you can upgrade existing systems without even having to open the case – not only does this mean that upgrading systems is fast but it doesn’t need to be carried out by experienced technicians.

Price is $299 and it will be available April 2006.  For more details visit the Matrox website.
