EVGA InterView Dual Monitor System

EVGA InterView Monitor

Some of you probably work with two monitor screens, but what if you simply bought one monitor that was two monitors?  I suppose this was the inspiration for EVGA’s InterView, which has two monitors that can swivel.  (You can see from the photo that one is turned 180 degrees.)

Each one has a resolution of 1440x900, and are 17-inch at the diagonal.  The stand itself has 4 ports, a built-in webcam, as well as an input for a microphone.  There is also a DMS video connection. 

Like it?  So do I.  Be prepared to pay a pretty penny’s worth of $649 for it, though.

Apple introduces LED Cinema Display: 24-inch, $899

Posted by Andru Edwards Categories: Apple, PC / Laptop, Peripherals,

Apple LED Cinema Display

After many years of remaining stagnant, finally gave their Cinema Display line a nice redesign. The new 24” LED Cinema Display looks similar to what you’d find in an iMac. Aluminum casing, black bezel along the front, LED backlit, built-in MagSafe connector, and a built-in iSight camera with microphone. That last one is something we’ve been waiting for, for far too long. Unfortunately, not everything is all fun and games with the new Cinema Display, as it appears that - at least for the time being - these new Cinema Displays are only compatible with the new MacBook, MacBook Pro, and MacBook Air that were announced today, which all incorporate the DisplayPort. There is currently no way to connect a Mac Pro, iMac, or older notebook to one of these. Let’s hope this gets remedied quickly.

You can pick up the new 24-inch LED Cinema Display in November for $899.
