ATI, Erhhhh.....AMD finaly released yesterday their Catalyst drivers for Vista.http://ati.amd.com/support/drivers/vista32/common-vista32.html
It correct the issue with the Microsoft drivers where I couldn't resize my desktop when I had an external monitor/projector hooked up. Basically, my laptop has a non standard 1280x800 setting. When I hooked an external projctor, typically 1024x768, my desktop was stretched and distorted. Now, there's a setting with the new drivers that let you use centered timings.
Perhaps the coolest thing is the possibility to rotate the displays individually. I read a lot and I find that the widescreen aspect ratio is really not suited for reading. Now, I can connect a 17" LCD monitor, place it sideways and read in portrait mode. Cool!
And since this thing is on sale this week at FutureShop. I'll think I'll get one.http://www.futureshop.ca/catalog/proddetail.asp?sku_id=0665000FS10077002&langid=EN
