DoubleView |
Hardware solution |
| Setup |
Quick software installation only |
Requires Hardware installation, opening of the PC case and installing 2-output video card |
| Flexibility |
The laptop can be put away if you do not need the additional screen |
A Dual Monitor will be most likely used in a fixed setup |
| Maximum resolution |
Up to 7,680x1,600 pixel when using four PCs with dual monitors |
Depends on the video card |
| Graphics card acceleration |
Hardware acceleration is not supported by DoubleView |
Eventually, if the graphics card does support it for the secondary VGA output |
| Display quality |
Optimal, because the video signal is transported digitally through the network |
Comparable to DoubleView only when using a dual DVI VGA plus digital TFT with DVI input |
| Cost |
Starting from $39.95 |
A TFT with DVI input at $350+ plus a DVI VGA card at $80+ |
