My companies sales team has just been issued new laptops for travel and for work locally. The idea is that they can leave and come back and plug into a dual monitor setup. The laptops all have a usb 3.0 port and we are hoping to connect two 1080 (minimum) to these laptops. They have a built in HDMI out and VGA out.
My thought was to use the HDMI for one monitor and a USB DL product for the second monitor.
We got the USB 3.0 however hoping that we could use that one high speed bus for something like this so all they have to do is plug in one thing and be done with it. (less questions for me later)
Any ideas would be great
