Top North-American system
integrators to offer turnkey solutions
Montreal, Canada, May 25, 2006 - Matrox
Graphics Inc., the leading manufacturer of graphics solutions for
professionals, is pleased to announce that its award-winning new
TripleHead2Go is now shipping worldwide and receiving widespread support
from industry leaders, the press and top enthusiast system integrators.
TripleHead2Go is a palm-sized box that uniquely allows you to add three
monitors to your workstation, gaming system or laptop, delivering incredible
productivity boosts to office work, Surround Design to workstation environments
for professionals and an immersive Surround Gaming™ experience to
enthusiasts.
First demonstrated publicly at the Intel Developer Forum in
San Francisco in March, TripleHead2Go won not only the Intel Technology
Innovation Acceleration Award (TIAA) in the Digital Home category, but also
took away the highly coveted "Best of Show" award.
The press has also
been raving about the new TripleHead2Go. With already 4 awards to date,
acclaim from industry leaders has been continuous:
"It's been a long
time since we've seen a product with so much "wow!" factor, and it's been even
longer since we've seen a product with "wow!" factor that retains long-term
benefits. Whether you're a video producer, photographer, or you just want to
straight-up get your game on, Matrox definitely has a winner with the
TripleHead2Go." (www.neoseeker.com)
 The excitement
level has especially been palpable in the gaming community. Several game
developers have worked with Matrox to make necessary adjustments to their games
to ensure compatibility with TripleHead2Go. Such popular titles as World
of Warcraft™ by Blizzard Entertainment, Half-Life 2: Lost Coast™ by
Sierra and Valve, and Unreal Tournament 2004™ by Epic Games have recently
been added to the list, bringing the total number of supported titles to over
135.
Matrox is committed to growing the list of supported titles and
will be making updates available on the web. The Matrox Surround Gaming
Utility, a simple software application bundled with TripleHead2Go that
automatically updates game configuration files to have proper settings enabled
for TripleHead resolutions, now has over 135 supported titles. Users may
