[QUOTE="pigoo3, post: 1302100, member: 56379"] Basically (if I understand things correctly) what you're looking for is..."How many external displays can I run from my MacBook Pro?" Here are some possible solutions: 1. Supports up to 4 external monitors via USB (need DVI to VGA adapter as well): [url=http://eshop.macsales.com/item/NewerTech/VIDU2DVIA/]NewerTech NWTVIDU2DVIA USB to HD Display Adapter... in stock at OWC[/url] 2. Supports up to 3 monitors (Triple Head To Go)...but expensive: [url=http://www.matrox.com/graphics/en/products/gxm/th2go/]Multi Monitor Adapter for Maximum Performance | TripleHead2Go[/url] 3. There's supposed to be a software solution as well...I forget the name of it...I will try searching for it. Here's an interesting article as well: [url=http://daggle.com/macbook-pro-multimonitor-4-monitors-at-once-1577]My MacBook Pro Goes Multimonitor: 4 Monitors At Once![/url] HTH, - Nick Edit: Here's the software solution I was thinking of (I'm not fully sure of it's limitations).
