First thing that jumped to my mind was professional stock analysts / market players. An 8-monitor setup from a single card would be a dream, particularly if you can install 2 in a system and run 16 monitors simultaneously.

I actually forwarded this article to one of our analyst guys who's VERY interested in a better multi-monitor setup. His reply? "I am salivating."
LOL, Matrox. I think I still have my Parhelia sitting around somewhere. It was pretty much the same story. Costs 3 times as much for last-gen features across a few more displays.
It would be interesting if with virtualization technologies if 8 independent desktops with 8 users in a single or multiple OS could be achieved. I could see to being used for computer "hubs" for 8-56 users from one computer "hub." likely targeted to public libraries and universities, Possibly even some small businesses.
If virtualization technologies could be use to create an 8 user hub I could see 8 user hub systems built around this for around $4000 a cost of $500/user .... not really a savings but an interesting idea

Tell him to hold tight; Eyefinity might be cheaper and is definitely better.
