Multi-Display Graphics Suites Compared

Posted by timothy on from the will-the-future-become-simpler dept.

Bender writes "There's an interesting comparison at TR between the major graphics players' multi-desktop software/hardware suites, like NVIDIA's nView and Matrox DualHead. These suites provide monitor positioning, application-level window memory, multiple virtual desktops, and the like. This is necessarily a Windows-centric comparison, but it's interesting to consider how Linux, X, and various desktop managers would match up with these solutions in terms of features and abilities."

    I personally suspect the "-1, Redundant" mod point was made specifically to deal with posts that link to "mod abuse" journal entries or threads.

    Not that I neccessarily deny the existance of the abuse, but c'mon, who're you englightening here?

    Some might sympathize to the cause, but certainly not the methods used by /. users who feel they've been abused. (hint: most people stop caring once the personal insults start flying)
