DisplayLink's graphics chip to drive up to 10 monitors without additional video hardware

DisplayLink's USB virtual graphics technology has enabled the 10 seat zero-client computing solution by leveraging the Windows MultiPoint Server 2010 operating system.

DisplayLink's USB virtual graphics chip and software innovations allow a computer to drive up to 10 monitors without additional video hardware in the host by providing simple software and USB graphics technology in the client.

Microsoft and DisplayLink target schools to allow multiple students to access the resources of a single computer, by eliminating the need for additional graphics hardware, and simplifying setup to a USB connection.

"We're excited that companies like DisplayLink are already using Windows MultiPoint Server 2010 as a springboard for innovation in the expanding market of shared resource computing," said Ira Snyder, general manager, Windows MultiPoint Server at Microsoft Corp. "Solutions like DisplayLink's underscore the potential of MultiPoint Server to address new computing scenarios and help deliver a reliable, secure, easy-to-use product."

"Many of us take for granted the ability to access content 24/7 from the web via PCs, laptops, and mobile devices, but not everyone and every school can afford a laptop or computer for every student," says Dennis Crespo, Senior Vice President of Marketing and Business Development, DisplayLink. "By simplifying zero-client virtual computing to a single USB connection, we can make computing easier than ever before."
