    @spudhed: Matrox is still around in the high end studio / professional world. They are still fairly well known in the high end video market, I beleive #matroxm9188pciex16

    @jamjen: Correct. Matrox decided to specialize in business applications and avoid the gaming race(to expensive). Generally they're cards are not quite as powerful as the current ATI/Nvidia but support many application specific enhancements plus wonderful multi-monitor support. #matroxm9188pciex16

    I know it does DVI as well... but I have to ask does anything really use DisplayPort besides a smattering of Apple products? I don't think I've seen a single display or piece of AV equipment that supports DP. Nearly everything has either HDMI or DVI connections.

    Basically my question is what the hell do you connect it to? #matroxm9188pciex16

    @Odin: Dell and Apple use it, but you can use adapters and connect almost every monitor or TV to it. Since DVI connector is too big and HDMI is really limited, the Displayport is the smartest choice here. #matroxm9188pciex16

    @ellito:
    Limited how? HDMI has a very similar feature set to DP. #matroxm9188pciex16

    Also perfect for making The Big Board.

    No, I can't let you in! You'd see the Big Board!

    I think this card in combination with the 4 crt monitors I have sitting around in storage would make a great DIY tanning bed. #matroxm9188pciex16
