Hi,
Before buying a USB device that uses DisplayLink, I'd like to verify that I can actually do what I want. I am going to:
1. Buy two 24" monitors
2. Attach one through display port (with adapter) and the other through a USB/DVI device using Display link
3. Launch Win7 Ultimate 64bit using bootcamp
4. Install DisplayLink drivers inside of Win7
5. Extend my displays across the two 24" monitors
6. Launch gotomypc and connect to my remote machine, which has dual 24" monitors
7. Use the shift + maximize action to open up my two remote 24" monitors simultaneously, one on each 24" local monitor
Is this possible? On a Windows machine, this is possible. On a Mac, running gotomypc, this feature is not available. I'm hoping that bootcamp + win7 + displaylink would make this possible from my Mac.
I am using a MacBook Air, mid-2011, 4GB RAM.
Thanks,
Mike
