Yeah, that would be an ideal solution. However, for those of us who
don't want to pay $1000+, doesn't quite work...:)
If you want to go with two monitors, here's my advice:
1. Make sure they both support the same resolution
2. If you are using a desktop or have two computers and are using a KVM,
Matrox has a slick unit for $200 something that takes either analog or
digital video and runs two monitors. I'm considering this option myself
in the near future.
