[QUOTE="bobtomay, post: 1260025, member: 24160"] The only way I can think of, might be with the Matrox DualHead2Go. This would connect to the port on your Mac now occupied by your main display. Then both the main display and the plasma would connect to the DH2G. I know it does extended or mirrored mode across the 2 monitors, and as I understand it, has it's own software for controlling it. So, the Mac should still see only the 3 monitors. (Not really sure here.) Have not done this, but I think that would work. I'd get it somewhere that it's easy to return. The drawback... both monitors have to run at the same resolution. You're getting into a pretty technical monitor set up there. Maybe we have a member doing something similar. [/QUOTE]
