Sorry to say, I am very disappointed with this article.
There was no mention or coverage about how nVidia drivers handle multi-mon setups or what happens when going beyond two monitors with more than one GPU card.
There was no mention (at all) of Eyefinity (though other articles have covered recently).
There was NO mention of what Windows 7 can do natively (generically) ... not in any detail, anyway.
There was no mention of interaction between Quadro and GeForce drivers, for multi-mon.
There was no mention of the diferences of graphics requirements for different apps (4X Trade-Station vs. 3X Eyefinity), for instance.
I hate to be so critical but this qarticle does not even qualify as "pap" ... Something I would expect to see in Reader's Digest or Family Circle Magazine ... Not THG !
About the only helpful aspect was the mention of a handful of utilities, at the end. The vague discussion on ergonomics pointed at considerations but had no research or reference to ergo standards, in various regions.
Zip, zero, zilsch, Nada, on professional OR DIY mounting options.
I am a video editor ... I can't get enough real-estate for media bins and directory trees and active virtual monitors and timelines and toolbars. Lots of folks trade stocks with up to 4 monitors. Many graphics artists have Quadros and would like to know if a 9800GT would add a 3rd monitor using native drivers.
No meat ... I would like to see a highly technical and very comprehensive series on "Two monitors & Beyond" that does not play or dabble (as this article does). I want to see real hw/sw builds! Real Apps! CS4! VEGAS! Flight Sims. Games. Trader Setups. Cover Drivers, Utils., Multi GPUs .. discreet vs. Integrated. Native OS features. Tricks. Tweaks. Display-Port know-how.
I try to limit my criticism to "the constructive" ... Everybody's a critic and I know this is a harsh review but ... My expectations were sorely dashed, in this case. THG is a more sophisticated audience ... by a very wide margin.
Substance !
