Discworld Creator's secret technique could make you more productive

Now what do you do when, like Terry Prachett, you want more than three monitors? Well, there are several ways of doing it, depending on your level of technical expertise.

The simplest one would be to add a new video card like the Matrox QID Quad Head Card which you can find at Dabs for £332.

This card is particularly interesting as it goes on the almost-universal PCI slot, which means that it will be compatible with all recent computers.



The card supports up to four 1600x1200 monitors giving you the possibility to have a mind-boggling 6400x1200 pixel virtual desktop.

Unfortunately, because it is an old card, you won't be able to play games on this and the price it quite prohibitive.
