[AG-TECH] Multi-Headed Display

[Allan Spale]

Luc,

Thanks for the plug.  EVL is working on creating a large tiled display.
If anyone is in need of technical details building one of these displays,
please let me know, and I will try to send the mail to the right person so
that you can receive the answer that you are looking for.
