R. Smith Consulting, New Brunswick, NJ Lines: 15 Keywords: CGA, monitors (2) I need a way to run two monitors with the same information off of a single computer, with one monitor about 40 feet away from the computer. I'd like to buy a clone to replace the current PS/2, but the company that does the purchasing says that 30' away from the computer is too far for the composite output of the CGA card. Are they just trying to sell me another computer for the profit? Are they correct? More importantly, is anyone doing this now?
