Matrox Introduces PowerDesk for Mac

Software Features Enhanced Desktop Management Control Across Multiple Displays

Montreal, Canada, December 22, 2008/PRNewswire —Matrox Graphics Inc. today announced the availability of PowerDesk for Mac, a new desktop management software for Graphics eXpansion Modules (GXMs) used with Apple® Mac systems. PowerDesk for Mac improves how—and where—windows are arranged, making it easier to use multiple applications on a Matrox DualHead2Go or TripleHead2Go multi-monitor set up.

The PowerDesk software—which comes with an easy-to-use interface for setting supported GXM multi-display modes—offers time-saving features that eliminate the need to manually position applications on a multi-monitor configuration. With a keyboard shortcut you can move windows between monitors while maximizing a window to fit a single display. In addition, the Dock can be dedicated to the bottom left, center, or right hand side of your preferred external display.

"PowerDesk allows multi-taskers to comfortably manage numerous applications across many monitors," states Caroline Injoyan, Business Development Manager, Matrox Graphics, Inc. "By quickly cycling through and re-sizing windows, desktop space can be organized so you can focus on the task at hand, whether it's to complete a work project or simply perusing your latest photo albums while surfing on the web."

 

Availability

The PowerDesk for Mac software is available for download on the Matrox website. For additional software information, visit PowerDesk for Mac.
