	MaxiVista 'Laptop as Monitor' Impressions (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-14)
		I've been playing around with a copy of MaxiVista, the software that lets you use another machine as a second monitor (usually a spare laptop, although there's nothing stopping you from using it on any machine with a display).
		I understand that MaxiVista only supports one client monitor at a time, but it'd be nice to be able to switch heads from the source machine.
		In general, I like MaxiVista a lot, if mainly because it finally gives me something to tell all those people who ask me what they can do with old laptops (because of the way the LCD panels in laptops connect to the video hardware, there really isn't a practical way to extract and reuse them).

	MaxiVista - Dual Monitor Software
		MaxiVista is a tremendously useful utility for anyone who is interested in working with an extra monitor, and perhaps has an extra laptop sitting around doing nothing.
		MaxiVista 2 is a dream come true and saved my local environment now that my 2 antiquated laptops will not see the landfill.
		MaxiVista allows me to set the second display for the streamers only, while using the primary display for all the rest of things I do, during the online session thus, MaxiVista eliminates the need to flip back and forth between streamer quote software, and the rest of my activities.

	Powertoys WebLog : MaxiVista: More than Just a Good Product Name
		Maxivista is software that creates an additional monitor for your machine by using a second PC (or laptop) and making your primary PC think that it has a second, third, or fourth display adapter that is really just your network card projecting an image to the extra PC's.
		Some people have told me they use the VSWindowManager add-in in combination with Maxivista to create window layouts that put all their tool windows on the third display and leave the center dedicated to the editor.
		MaxiVista is also a helper when I code on the main screen and have tutorial web pages on the 2nd screen.

		MaxiVista seeks to solve this problem by allowing you to setup a second tablet/laptop/computer as an external monitor.
		MaxiVista doesn't really let you control many network options, so all this really does is allow you to specify a specific IP address to connect to.
		MaxiVista does exactly what it is designed to do, and it does it well, but I personally just don't have a need for it.

	Jonathan Hardwick : The problem with MaxiVista…
		For those who missed my earlier review, MaxiVista is a networked virtual display driver that lets you extend your Windows desktop onto the screen of a second computer.
		But the great thing about MaxiVista is that it lets one PC control all the screens, so that you get one big desktop instead of lots of little ones.

	Geek.com Geek News - Mini-Review: MaxiVista 1.0.14 for Windows 2000/XP/2003
		MaxiVista runs as an icon in the taskbar of your primary PC (see picture below) and allows the secondary monitor to be enabled or disabled.
		MaxiVista can be purchased from the MaxiVista website, and a free trial version is available.
		In my conclusion Maxivista does not intend to replace a full blown multi monitor hardware setup but can add an additional screen for an unbeatable small amount of money or provide dual monitoring if you are tight on budget.

		MaxiVista seeks to temporarily utilise a second PC as a second screen.
		If there are problems, the MaxiVista software can force the extra monitor to a lower resolution and colour-depth.
		As you would expect, there is slowdown between the two monitors, irrespective of how close together they are; after all, this software turns the second PC into a primitive Smart Display.

	:: LAPTOP Magazine • MaxiVista ::
		It turns out that such a back door exists, and MaxiVista knows where it is. MaxiVista is a package of two software programs that allows any PC's monitor-laptop or desktop-to serve as an extension of the primary PC's display.
		This applet also serves as the program's configuration menu, allowing you to override the secondary display's default resolution, disable the secondary display's screen saver, switch it to portrait mode, and clone the primary display to the secondary screen, which can be useful for presentations.
		MaxiVista is, in short, a brilliant idea, brilliantly executed.

		MaxiVista can turn any Laptop or Tablet PC into an extended monitor of your primary PC.
		Maxivista, by default, expects the primary monitor to be on the left, and the secondary one to be on the right side, so, as my configuration is the opposite, I had to change it.
		The process was also quite easy (but remember to switch off maxivista before changing your configuration).

		The behaviour of the secondary screen is almost the same as the physical monitor.
		I also tried a cableless wlan connection which is obviously slower and then of course the refresh rate is reduced on the Maxivista display but still acceptable.

		MaxiVista adds a why-didn't-I-think-of-that corollary feature: It makes your notebook's screen act as a secondary monitor for another PC.
		To run MaxiVista, the primary PC needs Windows 2000/2003/XP, while the viewer PC can be running Win98/NT4/Me/2000/2003/XP, which makes MaxiVista a great way to put an older notebook to good use.
		My only other problem was when the Desktop went idle and returned to the Welcome screen, which caused MaxiVista's connection to the notebook to be lost.
