Remote secondary monitor

Folks:

I found a cool utility that you might find useful.

If you have a laptop ... and find yourself needing a second monitor,
this utility will let you use that laptop as a second monitor via tcp/ip.

It's called MaxiVista ... what it does is basically install a 'virtual'
display adapter in Windows ... and sends the display information over to
a 'viewer' application that you run on another system.

Obviously there are some limitations on what you can display on the
secondary display, but for normal operations it works quite seamlessly.

I think you can use it for up to 4 different remote systems if you want.

The URL is http://www.maxivista.com/
