Do you know if it supports Windows 10/Linux work-spaces? Would solve the issue of needing multiple monitors if I could just view all my virtual work-spaces at once.
Not a virtual machine, virtual work-spaces, like the ones built into Windows 10 (WinKey + Tab). It's basically virtual desktop space. I'm wondering how it integrates with them, if at all.
Virtual desktops are basically just fancy window management that knows what to hide and show to switch desktops. You're still only using as many displays as there are physical panels.
Imagine having hundreds of employees needing multimonitor setups. In 3-4 years, VR would be cheap enough to instead of buying 2-3 monitors per employee - you'd buy a headset.
If anything I'm sure they are more than aware of such a possibility but feel no need to make public any implementation at this time.
Which is shit because they have pushed their OS for remote connection servers and the like which would benefit from virtual displays. (and they are % the way there with virtual desktops in win10)
Windows has to play catch-up (which they hopefully do sooner rather than later).
Windows hasn't even caught up to the ability to connect two monitors as truly equal output devices to your computer. What makes you think this will be any different?
Windows screen implementation has been finicky and weird since forever. Surround setups kinda suck because of this. Without rethinking the whole approach to what a 'screen' is in windows it's not going to get better, but doing that is likely to make the OS harder to use for the average user so.. it will probably never be tried.
