I must say that this is an excellent review of the product.

I have purchased the Dualhead2go digital edtion for my mac mini.

the problem I am running into is that the only res I can set it at is 2048 x 768 for dual display and that when I go to play a movie, the movie freezes but the audio keeps playing. if I move the window around or right click on it to get a context menu, it will play.

Also, if I lower the res, I lose the display on the second monitor

I have the same issue with full screen. any ideas?

I am going to try boot camp when I get home. just trying to figure out a solution.

Hello, i have a setup with 2 19"-screens, and thought - Why not place a third one, so my character/Car/Whatever's in the middle of the picture wouldn't be cut in half?

The questions is tho, sinse i cant go fullscreen with monitors on different graphic-cards, can i make 1 large screen with this Dualhead, if the third screen is on the same graphic-card? (I assume thats how this Duelhead is connected) Or would i have to get myself the triplehead, leaving me a spot for a forth screen?
