Ah I didn't know that.

You can use DisplayLink to get around it.

I wouldn't class it as a hack since it is pretty standard in enterprise environments. Downside is that it does consume CPU which depending on your workload may/may not be noticeable.

I have it driving a 49" UltraWide Curved Monitor... which replaced my two 27" monitors.

Might not be for everyone, but I only need it to drive a single external monitor.

At what res/rate?
