Over at CADSpeed, Tony DeYoung has begun a series of articles about the use of AMD’s Eyefinity technology for multi-display CAD systems. Of course, when you start talking about these “professional” Grade systems you pretty much have to start working with DisplayPort, so the first article is a brief on the current state of DVI and DisplayPort.
But while the graphics card manufacturers embraced DisplayPort early on, the display manufacturers (Apple aside) have only recently made the switch. Beginning in 2010, Asus, Dell, HP LaCie, Lenovo, and NEC released more than 80 displays supporting DisplayPort. But there are still a lot more displays released with only the less expensive DVI or VGA input connectors.
