EDIT: So let me get this straight to run eyefinity, at least 1 of the monitors have to have DP. the others don't?

It sucks though after prolonged use the hole sorta opens up more, well the ones without buttons, and on rare occasions Mr. Dingaling decides to sneak out because of it.

Darn. Just realized I'll also need 3 display port cables =-( oh well, not too much of a cost for such a huge experience, I've never used 2 monitors that match, and I used 2 un-matching for only like 1 hour =-)

$34.47 shipped for 3 of these
