I've noticed a lot of venders selling the displaylink hardware as being compatible with windows, mac and unix. I had so much trouble with this product and my mac that I ended up going back to 2 screens and selling the device. Personally I think it is false advertising so say it is even compatible with the mac. Should displaylink be sending out some sort of notification to their vendors? I keep seeing this thing advertised for the mac and people think they are buying a solution but really they are just buying problems. This is dishonest imo.

For those who think I'm being overly dramatic, see the thread I started about displaylink's response to my compaints. When I emailed support asking why the third display stopped working their response was to admit their drivers were not up to standard and that a fix would be a long way away.
