	Not generically, but I remember seeing two monitors hooked up to
a PC, one monochrome, one graphics, displaying separate things, as a 
demonstration under DOS 2.0 back in 1982, even before there WAS a
Macintosh.  OK, so the Mac handles with a little bit more finesse. How
many people in this world use two monitors? OK, maybe its a little more
common among Macs because, for instance the SE screen size is so
abysmally limiting.
