[QUOTE="steve bullman, post: 1080954, member: 164996"] Hi guys, first post here, hopefully ive picked the right forum. im looking at making the switch from pc to an imac. im looking at the top of the range system, and whilst im pretty happy with my decision to make the switch, i have a question that i seem to be getting a lot of conflicting answers for. I currently run 2 screens on the pic, and as i will have them to spare after my imac purchase i would like to run both of these in conjunction with the imac. im told this is possible via a matrox, which apple dont seem to do themselves and havent given me any real clear indication of costs or setup. in addition to this, i was told in an apple store yesterday that i could run the 2 extra screens out of the one port on the imac by using a splitter, but i seem to remember apple saying over the phone prior to this that it might not run very smooth. Has anyone tried either of these options with any success? i have searched this forum as well as others but havent found anything particularly up to date. i did see mention on another forum that the matrox makes the screens run in vga? any help greatly appreciated :) [/QUOTE]
