Montreal, Canada, May 25, 2006 - Matrox Graphics Inc., the leading
manufacturer of graphics solutions for professionals, is pleased to announce
that its award-winning new TripleHead2Go is now shipping worldwide and
receiving widespread support from industry leaders, the press and top
enthusiast system integrators. TripleHead2Go is a palm-sized box that
uniquely allows you to add three monitors to your workstation, gaming system
or laptop, delivering incredible productivity boosts to office work,
Surround Design to workstation environments for professionals and an
immersive Surround Gaming experience to enthusiasts.
First demonstrated publicly at the Intel Developer Forum in San Francisco in
March, TripleHead2Go won not only the Intel Technology Innovation
Acceleration Award (TIAA) in the Digital Home category, but also took away
the highly coveted "Best of Show" award.
The press has also been raving about the new TripleHead2Go. With already 4
awards to date, acclaim from industry leaders has been continuous:
"It's been a long time since we've seen a product with so much "wow!"
factor, and it's been even longer since we've seen a product with "wow!"
factor that retains long-term benefits. Whether you're a video producer,
photographer, or you just want to straight-up get your game on, Matrox
definitely has a winner with the TripleHead2Go."

The excitement level has especially been palpable in the gaming community.
Several game developers have worked with Matrox to make necessary
adjustments to their games to ensure compatibility with TripleHead2Go. Such
popular titles as World of Warcraft™ by Blizzard Entertainment, Half-Life 2:
Lost Coast™ by Sierra and Valve, and Unreal Tournament 2004™ by Epic Games
have recently been added to the list, bringing the total number of supported
titles to over 135.
Matrox is committed to growing the list of supported titles and will be
making updates available on the web. The Matrox Surround Gaming Utility, a
simple software application bundled with TripleHead2Go that automatically
updates game configuration files to have proper settings enabled for
TripleHead resolutions, now has over 135 supported titles. Users may
