I want/need more DISPLAYS? pro my only option?
hi all,
have desire more monitors. have macbook pro right now, can drive 1 additional monitor. want mac setup can drive many more monitors (i'm thinking 3 or maybe four).
know imacs option, affordable option? speed isn't huge concern me (programming doesn't require much). i'd love able throw in ton of ram though.
pros choice me? previous year's model go if want:
support driving many monitors flawlessly
support gobs of ram
speed
of course cheap possible...
pros appealing because of upgradability, want machine last many many years.
thoughts?
thanks!
if want more monitor space , want go cheap, can did: use matrox dual2go break out box.
have 2006 mbp running 2 1080p lcds + mbp's monitor. matrox box fools mbp thinking 1 big 3840x1080 monitor hooked it. matrox splits image in half , distributes signal 2 ext. monitors. walaah! massive desktop.
response slow, though, bad solution gamer. if music production , want have entire 48-channnel mixer on 1 screen , samples on other, it's great. use in application, , basic page layout stuff speed isn't important big canvas is.
not everyone, @ least should check it. if 2006 2.0 core dual (not core2duo) mbp w/256 ram gpu can it, later 1 surely could. love mondo huge desktop.
