Widi - is it still a thing?

Hi people!

Just wondered if anyone has any experience using Widi (the intel wireless display thing)...

I have a mac and secretly hoping that they will support it - but not holding hopes up as they have Apple TV 'solution' already.

Those who have used it (if anyone), is it any good for 1080p over wireless n?

Cheers

Matt

As far as I know it was a complete flop and no one really supported it

Specs: CPU: AMD FX 6300 Motherboard: Gigabyte 970A DS3P RAM: HyperX Fury 16GB 1866MHz GPU: MSI R9 270 OC edition Case: Sharkoon VS3-S SSD: Samsung 840 EVO 120GB HDD: 1TB Caviar Blue PSU: Corsair CX500W

I would also like to know how WiDi actually performs.

I'd love to have like a 32"-46" TV as an auxiliary monitor for my laptop (LG has non-smart ones with built in WiDi and IPS-panels for a reasonable price).
Since I move around in the room I don't want to be connected through HDMI; WiDi seems (at least on paper) to be the perfect solution.

Swedish master race. Quote my post or I won't see your reply.
