See more. Do more. Be more productive. Increase your productivity with Matrox DualHead2Go; a cost-effective, dual monitor upgrade. Using patent pending technology, this palm-sized box harnesses the power of the graphics card in your system and is capable of adding multi-monitor support to compatible notebook and desktop computers. DualHead2Go is simple to install as it connects to the existing single monitor output (i.e. external VGA output) of a computer.
A single display workspace physically limits the amount of information that you can see. Constantly having to open and close application windows can be cumbersome and time consuming, thereby making it more difficult to multi-task and reducing effectiveness. With the adoption of a dual-display workspace, the work process is streamlined and management of multiple documents is simplified because a workspace is now double in size. A document can be expanded across two displays or each display can be used to view different information: You can surf the internet on one display and write email on the second, or view photo albums and zoomed photos at the same time. You can see more, do more, be more productive. The included Matrox PowerDesk software seamlessly manages window positioning and message pop-ups.
Perfect for the office, mobile workstation, home or on the go!
