A VGA (much less XVGA, which is probably what you really need) quad splitter is likely to be pricey as crap. I'd recommend looking at using VNC from the workstation you have now to pick up the screens you need. Check out: http://www.csd.uwo.ca/staff/magi/doc/vnc/extras.html and specifically John Wilson's VNCMonitor, at: http://www.wilson.co.uk/Software/vnc/VncMonitor.htm which sounds like it will do the splitting for you. I've never used it personally, but it sounds like it might do what you need. Cheers, -- jra -- Jay R.
