For many users out there a second LCD would be a welcome addition to the desktop. The problem is that many notebooks and PCs only have one display adapter and adding a second video card can’t always be done. Kensington has a new Dual Display adapter that makes adding a second display easy.

The adapter adds a second DVI display using USB DisplayLink technology. The adapter is compatible with both Windows and Mac OS X platforms. The adapter will support widescreen monitors with up to 1440 x 900 resolutions and standard displays up to 1280 x 1024 both in 32-bit color. The Dual Display Adapter is available now for $119.99.

"With DisplayLink's unique hardware and software, a second display is just a single USB connection away," said Frederic Frappereau, Global Product Marketing Manager at Kensington. "For $$119.99, both Mac and PC users can enjoy easier multitasking, increased productivity and a more pleasing visual environment without having to install complex video cards."
