Pros: It works. I now have two Acer W223w monitors connected to my Dell Inspiron, one through the built in vga out and one through this sucker. The resolution is sufficient for anything but gaming and watching video. from Newegg.com Configure it though the software which is provided or though your standard display options... simple and easy. Cons: USE / GET A DIFFERENT USB CABLE!!! Like others, the one that was shipped to me does not work... from Newegg.com This is a wonderful product and it works very well. I am using it with my HP 1035NR netbook. With the UV-16, I'm able to display an image on my 22" screen at full 1680x1050 resolution and the quality is excellent. However, be cautioned that it does not work well with Windows 7. from Amazon.com I was looking for a better way to extend my screen other than my IBM T41 laptop screen (used as secondary/auxiliary screen). I bought a second 20" flatscreen and chose the EVGA 12 USB port based upon someone's positive review doing exactly what I wanted to do. I had several startup issues, mainly with upgrading to XP SP2 (I went to SP3) and freeing up lots of HD space, which was an overdue chore. from Amazon.com Pros: Excellent device and the price was great. Needed a second montior on a client consulting job. I had the monitor but only one VGA connection. The eVGA UV Plus USB provided another VGA through a usb port. from Newegg.com Cons: Not meant for gaming or watching movies guys n gals! You could watch a movie on this thing but be warned that it will get hot.... USB cord did NOT work with half of these units BUT will work on other stuff like an external card reader or hard drive. No idea whats up with that.... from Newegg.com Other Thoughts: Bought this to allow me to use a Dell 24" widescreen with my IBM Thinkpad T42. Only got 1280x1024. EVGA Support Team was...not great... Me: "Hi - here's all my computer and monitor specs - why can't I get better than 1280x1024?"EVGA: "If you're using a square monitor that's the best this model will do. from Newegg.com Pros: Makes it easy to add a third monitor with out adding another internal video card Cons: The USB cable that comes with it should not be used. I had two units I thought were bad (no display)and it was the USB cable from Newegg.com Pros: Works great with Vista x64 and Win 7 x64. They even have beta Win7 drivers so it appears as though driver development is active and from my use pretty solid. I purchased this so I could drive an external monitor on a laptop at its native resolution and digitally (DVI). It works excellently for Photoshop, coding, and web surfing, any like task on this display adapter works very well. from Newegg.com Cons: Doesnt function with my 64 bit XP OS which is a downfall. which is my fault i guess. however most of evga's stuff is xp64 compliant so i was surprised to say the least. Other than that functionality for vista windows 7 and xp32 is accepted, but resolutions beyond 1440 are NOT supported. from Newegg.com
