i just grabbed a software called MaxiVista. You can google it. Basically, it uses your network to access another computer, and you can use that other computers monitor as a second or third.



The one on the right is actually connected to my laptop. The one on the left however, is actually connected to a different computer entirely. Here is a little video I made for it:

The other program I talk about on the video is called Ultramon. Its a software used to get the most out of multi monitor setups. Ultramon is cool bc not only does it allow you to move windows from screen to screen without dragging and dropping, it gives each monitor its own toolbar, so that whatever window is on the monitor, its also in the monitors toolbar, and not clogging up your main monitors toolbar.

Just thought some here might find this useful.

That's ultra bad*ss.

Very cool thanks for sharing.

I pitty the fool that doesn't use 3 monitors.

Ay, my eyes are getting sore just by looking at those 3 monitors. Are you sure you won't get lazy eyes soon? Just kidding.

I have to agree - the additional productivity and convenience of having additional monitors (particularly in our industry) far outweighs the setup cost.

I actually have Ultramon too. Several Mills actually use it. Great program. I recommend it to anyone who doesn't use a TV for a monitor (like me)

J~

Ooh, so cool... Thanks!

I'm not as awed about the setup as I am the clean desk....

Seriously, I've been on three monitors for awhile and I don't know I ever did it before with two......or one......

I am blown away by this...thanks for sharing, I am always shrinking screens, toggling and trying to get things just right.I use one monitor and have an extra laptop. think I will add it to th mix.

My video card supports two monitors, so I have two 23" lcd's.

Thanks for making me spend more money LOL I just upgraded 3 sets of computers to 2 monitors but am sold %100 on 3 now!!!
Awesome!!!

If my video card has two of those input thingies for the monitors. I should be good?

I do not think you need that with this software.....does not matter how much capacity your video card has.

I have two desks - and neither one looks like that. I have no where to put another monitor - but you have got me thinking I might need to clean off my desks.

Same here, I need to get organize to get a desk like yours, LOL
