Delivered and installed today;
"IOGear USB 2.0 External DVI Video Card GUC2020DW6"
Had to download windows7 drivers from IOGear website other than that in was a really simple plug and play operation. Now running laptop plus I'm able to extend to 2 external monitors

Works like a hot damn!!!

How is the 2d picture quality on this?
Also is there some picture slowering ,because it goes through USB its CPU intensive i would imagine.

If you want to drive two additional monitors, there is this adapter:

Targus ACA039US


got this from a tech guy.

have one on order.

running one extra flat off a laptop now using the hdmi port

hooking a second flat off the vga port at the same time does not work.

the targus box will add 2 flats using a usb 3.0 port out and the hdmi should still work for a third flat.

will advise once i have the rig running.

update:

targus box running

hook it up
install driver from cd
done

if you want to use the existing vga and hdmi ports on the lap and add even more screens, just download a special driver from the targus site.

Picture quality is OK, I'm mainly looking at stock charts so it's hard to tell.
For what I wanted, the ability to have 3 monitor screens to view I am very happy.
