Yes, if you like to see slide shows ;D

Jack, I have one similar... no use at all in the cockpit. It can't really do much of anything.
I think the 16MB of RAM on board gives us a clue, particularly when most of us are running video cards with 2 or 3 Gigabytes. ;)
i brought one from that well known auction site just before xmas haven't tried it yet but i'm hoping i can use it to connect the vga side to my fds cdu? as its still sealed in the box and i could return it does anyone think it would be okay for this application? after all its only to display writing not hard graphic applications? any advice appreciated before i open the box! :D i was going to buy a cheap graphics card and install that but didn't want to open my pc up as i'm not that good with computers :huh: thanks norman.
I have a couple of them, not good at all for cockpit use!
Ah yes.. but have you tried the USB 3 variety? The one from Targus gives you USB3 speed, dual outputs (HDMI, DVI or VGA) and it intelligently uses your GPU to do it's rendering.
Haven't tried it in full multi-window use yet, but across 3 (2 outs from the adaptor and 1 from PC) it worked just fine.

I picked up two of these about a year ago and remember being very unsatisfied. I don't remember exactly what the problem was, but I remember the units being essentially useless. I believe they were USB 2.0.
I went with Dual Head 2 Go and was very pleased.
