Dear DisplayLink Forum!

I have only just found this thread and am extremely disappointed.

What is the point in having multiple screens if colour cannot be adjusted to match across the screens? Even the same monitor model will show considerable variation, esp. when connected through different port types.
This thus is a deal breaker even for people who do not need perfectly matched or fully calibrated screens.

Now, no-where did the product literature suggest that the USB linked displays would be crippled like that.

We have just purchased 10 (!) Belkin USB 3.0 Dual Video Docking Stations.
Sadly, they will now go back.

USB connected monitors are a fantastic idea for people with powerful laptops. When I spend a lot of money on a laptop and a set of monitors, saving a little on the USB link isn't helping.

*Please* consider fixing this or offering a pro version.

Regards,
Dr Kreil.
