THE PREMIER MULTI-MONITOR APP FOR WINDOWS USERS
DisplayLink
DisplayLink is the best alternative for Windows users. Mac support is left out of this Windows-only app. To run the app you will need to pair it with a machine running Windows XP, Vista, or 7. The solution is fully integrated into the DisplayLink dock and multi monitor setups, which you can also purchase. The price is hard to beat at $1.99. Windows users should give this one a serious look.

Used to having a second display for your Windows desktop? Put your iPad to work. Get the first DisplayLink iPad monitor companion app from the leader in multi-display productivity. DisplayLink has shipped millions of networked multi-display solutions through top tier partners such as HP, Toshiba, Samsung and others.
The DisplayLink app wirelessly turns your iPad into an extended desktop display, improving your productivity by freeing up desktop space on your notebook or desktop computer.
Key Features:

â¢Allows you to park your browser, email, social networking site, IM or application control console on the iPad display and avoid application view switching on your primary display
