Hi David Sorry it took so long to answer belive it or not was bidding on ebay for psone unit and the missus asked me to pick her up form a frineds house and would you not know it in my rush i forgot to put a bid in and the bloody thing went for the kinda money i wanted to pay Bummer and Then some ... that was another fishing expedition as they say no loss just annoyning that i did not get the same unit that Warren used in his project, But i will say that i'll try the 2 monitors that i have now and see how it goes so if warren still has his unit for sale feel free to go for it guys big thanks for considering me for this, when i get my arse in gear and out of info gathering and CNC learning and general wishing/dream state i'll post some pic's

I could not possibly take advantage of your wife messing up your Ebay bidding!

So, I withdraw and let you take up Warren`s offer. Hope it all works out ok

I checked out the link, however, these monitors are not much use for displaying gauges as they cannot handle Direct X or OpenGL through the USB connection. Their website says

"Any software that requires 3D hardware acceleration cannot be displayed properly on USB monitors including Mimo. This includes RealPlayer (in Expansion Mode), games with 3D graphics, and programs based on the DirectX or OpenGL graphics engines. Other multimedia players including Windows Media Player will work with Mimo monitors."
