[QUOTE="tony_mac, post: 1240130, member: 202032"] Anthony: I went with the Matrox Dualhead2Go DP edition running dual 24" ViewSonic LED 1080p monitors. I'm in the same boat, work and portability. The Thunderbolt port works great. It runs 3840 x 1080 and the net result is each monitor running 1920 x 1080. Don't get me wrong the Matrox unit is pricey, make sure you update the firmware if you do purchase it. I have a quirky problem running in clamshell mode, but resolved myself to leave the lid open. I run VMware Fusion 3 for Windows 7 & and migrated my complete Windows environment over to my MBP. VMware rocks.. If you are want to remote desktop from your Windows PC to your MBP you can use VNC to achieve what you want to do. If you have a Gigabit LAN data switch, it should be pretty fast. You might want to research VMware Fusion software ($69) to migrate your Windows machine over to your MBP. Then you have the best of both worlds. Tony [/QUOTE]
