I'm using the card. I'm not overly impressed. Especially with the support
for the Dual Display.

I'm using Windows 2000, and I was assured by the staff at Matrox, as well as
by the actual packaging that the card came in, that the G400 would support
dual display with separate controls for each display under Windows 2000.

This is not the case.

Of course, they may release better drivers sometime, but who knows when. I
bought the card for that feature specifically but it doesn't deliver (under
Windows 98 it works great, but who uses Windows 98 for Max?)

I've also noticed some strange visual artifacts, kind of faint blurs around
text and graphics. Very faint. Not all the time. But annoying when I see it.


Keith.
