    That looks like a clever bit of kit - brilliant for those looking for mega real estate without the cost of multiple graphics cards. Problem is that who'll actually want it? Alright, you've got data-centre type applications, but your usual multi-monitor wanters like gamers and video/image editors won't want it because it's a) laggy, and b) compressed.

    well as far as I know you only need a ninja graphics card for the screens you want to game on, the others could be driven from PCI cards for all it matters so I only see the point of this for notebooks as usb is a horible interface for things like a displays.
