Matrox Introduces New Mac-Friendly DualHead2Go DP and TripleHead2Go DP Multi-Monitor Adapters

MONTREAL, December 9, 2010/PRNewswire/ --

    - New DisplayPort SKUs provide improved out-of-the-box plug and play
experience plus expanded resolution support for Mac notebooks and desktops

    Matrox Graphics Inc. today announced connectivity improvements to the
Matrox DualHead2Go DP Edition and TripleHead2Go DP Edition Graphics eXpansion
Modules (GXMs) benefitting Apple(R) Mac notebook and desktop users. The
DualHead2Go DP and TripleHead2Go DP products now come packaged with a Mini-
DisplayPort to DisplayPort cable that allows Mac users to connect these
external multi-monitor modules directly to the mini-DisplayPort output of
their systems to swiftly drive multiple monitors or projectors. Mac
professionals and enthusiasts now benefit from the convenience of a true plug
and play platform while experiencing the productivity-enhancements gained
across an advanced dual- or triple-monitor workspace. In addition, an
upcoming firmware release will enable the support of a dual 1600x900
resolution on DVI monitors, further expanding the list of supported
resolutions for greater flexibility when choosing displays.

    "A growing number of Mac users are choosing the Matrox DualHead2Go and
TripleHead2Go as their multi-display technology of choice, and we've
responded by delivering our most Mac-friendly solutions to date," states
Caroline Injoyan, Business Development Manager, Matrox Graphics, Inc. "By
including the Mini-DisplayPort to DisplayPort cable in the newest GXM
versions, we're providing the ultimate out-of-box experience so the only
thing users need to worry about is how best to enjoy their expansive onscreen
desktop space."

    The Matrox DualHead2Go and TripleHead2Go GXMs work in conjunction with
your system's existing GPU to provide high-quality, uncompressed graphics and
video across maximum resolutions of dual 1920x1200 and triple 1360x768 under
Mac. With the additional desktop display area, MacBook, MacBook Air, MacBook
Pro, iMac, Mac Mini, and Mac Pro users can comfortably run different
applications on each monitor or view one application across multiple
displays, eliminating the tedious and time-consuming tasks of re-sizing,
re-arranging, and re-organising multiple windows. Notebook users can further
enhance their productive workflow by using their laptop's LCD as a third or
fourth monitor to achieve an unprecedented level of computing efficiency.
GXMs are also compatible with Microsoft(R) Windows(R) operating systems.
