Date: Sun 06-Oct-1989 09:42:36 From: Unknown Subject: multi-user cubes Has anyone installed multiple mega-pixel displays on their cubes? I am sure that I can install three additional boards and three additional monitors in my cube, but has anyone actually done so? Are there any ways to get more than four monitors in one cube?

They were demoing the bus interface chips, which are not quite generally available yet, and 2. They cautioned that the power supply is NOT rated to handle more than one monitor at a time (don't try this at home, kids). >From: 2FHGKINGLY@kuhub.cc.ukans.edu
