It Serves its Purpose [Posted on 2008-04-12] Dont' buy this if you want to do video intense activities; but if you want to expand your office desktop and do things like word processing, email, etc. then this product is great. I use two 22" widescreen monitors for my home desktop and wanted to do the same with my laptop. Only 1 problem - laptop only has 1 vga output.
Be careful with your cabling - the adapter on the non-usb end of this is a female adapter- you will need a male-male to conect to you monitor (or a DVI/VGA adapater, etc.)
6 to 1 half a dozen of the other [Posted on 2008-05-20] this product is OK.
I bought if to use with an older laptop that is my workhorse but after using it for about 3 months I switched to the matrox dual head 2 go device.
I do not game (use my xbox 360 for that) so reviews on use for office apps are right on the money. Older laptops will have throughput issues as the USB port will delay any screen activity and give you jitters!
May work better on newer, faster hardware!
Bad performance [Posted on 2008-07-17] I have tried to use these adapters for the last six months at work and at home. My company ordered several of them recently but we had to give up on them. I tried them with my home laptop and the same results.
The laptops crashed very often (BSD) for no reason, and also when trying to open .mov files. The resolution is not good, and the refresh rate is very slow. I work for the IT department, and I tried to troubleshoot it by contacting the Tritton tech service. I installed the newest drivers/firmware. No luck. I had to return the device.
Note: Our company tried a couple other adapters but they had the same performance. We had to buy DVI connectors and use docking stations.
If you are looking for an adapter with great definition, and great performance try something else.
Blurred display, Low cost, Low performance [Posted on 2008-08-14] I returned this product after 5 days because of unacceptable blurriness of the display. Installation was quick. Had to download/install latest driver from their website. The device recognized the LCD monitor and everything worked fine except the quality of display. The display was very blurred. Word, Explorer and anything with text was too blurred to be able to use this display.
Wow. Saved my work life [Posted on 2008-10-03] Thanks to this little gizmo, My productivity improved 3 fold, no joke. I only wish they would come out with Mac drivers.
