this is a cool product but for the moment it is too pricey and the version with thunderbolt is going to be even more expensive, like a 1000 bucks. At this price the best option is to simply get a new laptop.
$700+ are you kidding me? I really think you could sell a ton of these if the price wasn't so ridiculous. There are many people that want to use PCIx cards with their laptops, but not if it requires basically the price of a new laptop..
Yes, you have to use xternal monitor. if you are using a video card. The expressBox is not just for video card it can be used with audio, framegrabber, Ethernet, USB, Firewire, RAID or any PCIE cards.
i need some help.. a have a GeForce 9500 PCI EXPRESS 1gb/128bit DDR2 DVI + CRT + HDMI oneboard
SLY Ready technology. I tryed to instal in my computer, when i turned on, the pc worked, but there was no signal to the monitor... Nothing apeared. This video card only works on PCIE? plz help me
how the fuck could they jack up the price on this thing to around $800-$900 when they know that people can simply buy desktops starting at $300. Even for dual monitor purposes, ive seen cheaper.
