I also agree that a XP x64 driver for these display devices are much needed.

I recall trying to get iTunes to work on my XP x64, and the install wouldn't continue because of retarded agreements between Apple and Microsoft. After a bit of hacking/googling I stumbled across information in order to get iTunes to work with XP x64. The problem was simple: Microsoft wanted to push their new operating system (windows7) and made Apple agree to install blocks to block the iTunes installer from working on XP x64, even though the same drivers for 64-vista and 64-windows 7 would still work on XP x64.

I sure hope DisplayLink doesn't suck like big name companies like Apple and Microsoft who make these gay agreements to stop you from developing on other/older systems.

BOTTOM LINE: MAKE XP X64 DRIVERS. Plenty of people need them. You should show support for your users.
