On a similar vein ... I have always been impressed by the Macs ability to handle a multihead display. Is there any way to do this in a PC and have Windows recognize/handle both displays? From what I know about the PC hardware, there are some severe restrictions. BUT, if an 8514/A type display can co-exist with a VGA card, why can't a Windows display driver allow both the VGA and the 8514/A to be used at the same time. (Assuming that you had two monitors.) -- George Erhart AT&T Bell Laboratories att!archie!gwe
