Editorial Review of MaxiVista (32-bit version)

If you have more than one computer, and you're looking for a way to share their screen real estate, you could put the unique program MaxiVista to good use. It lets you turn a second PC or laptop into an extension of your main monitor, allowing you to treat their screens as if they were part of the same display. In that way, you can use both monitors as if they were one large one. Both PCs will have to be on the same network.

If you're not already a multiple monitor aficionado, using more than one monitor can be disconcerting at first, and you'll probably lose sight of where your cursor is more than once. But after you get used to it, you'll appreciate all the extra screen real estate MaxiVista gives you. You can arrange the second monitor however you'd like, either as a vertical or horizontal extension of your main monitor.

MaxiVista does more than extend your monitor to a second PC. It also lets you mirror one PC's desktop onto another, so that one PC can watch what the other is doing.

Note that setting up MaxiVista can be rather complex, and so you should carefully follow the instructions. You'll have to tell the firewall on each PC to allow MaxiVista through. And you don't install the complete version of the program on each PC--you install the complete version only on the main computer, the one whose monitor is being extended. For the other computer, you install only a viewer program, which is created when you install the complete version of MaxiVista on one PC. You copy the viewer program to the second PC and install it from there. Also note that Windows Aero is disabled while MaxiVista is in use on Windows Vista and Windows 7 PCs. Aero gets turned back on after you stop using MaxiVista.

Note: This demo version works for 50 program launches or 14 days (whichever comes first).

Note: This software comes in 32-bit and 64-bit versions. This is the 32-bit version. If your 64-bit PC is running a 64-bit OS, please download the 64-bit version instead.

Description of MaxiVista (32-bit version)

MaxiVista turns any spare Laptop or Tablet PC into a second monitor for your primary PC. Program windows can be extended across both PC's screens, while the programs are still all controlled from the primary PC. Simply connect up to four PCs via Ethernet, a wireless LAN, FireWire, or a USB network and enjoy giant desktop real estate of up to 7,680x1,200 pixels. The extra desktop space helps to avoid switching back and forth between overlapping windows. Additionally, MaxiVista allows to control up to four PCs with a single mouse and keyboard of the Primary PC. Just drag the mouse cursor to the PC you wish to control. MaxiVista can also mirror the display contents of your primary PC to any other PC via a network connection without signal loss. MaxiVista is based only on software. No need to buy graphics cards, monitors or keyboard mouse switches
