I appreciate all the responses on my questions for running two monitors...A
couple guys said they run a couple cheapy video cards which work fine with
ME which is what im using..it seems you need a card like Matrox if your
running XP from what I can tell from all the messages...either way im gonna
give it a try, it sure will make things alot easier....

independent surfing the net. I have a cable  hook up and im running 3
computers thru a router to accomplish the task now. Lots of possibilities I
suppose.  I ran a quick search and see there are cards where you can run 20
monitors, Is all this done with software to control them I suppose? Any info
is appreciate either private or the group if you think others might be
interested....
