There is a demo that allows only one x-client that can be downloaded at ftp.xinside.com, but you will also need a patch, a new ati.ddx, that can be downloaded at crab.xinside.com under /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/AcceleratedX/modules. If you replace the ati.ddx included with the demo with this version, it will work great. After testing it out, I purchased the full product for $99 and it has been worth it. It works great.
