Is anyone using the dual monitor option with Win 98 and if so maybe you
could explain a few things. The way I understand it is you use two separate
video cards plugged into the same PC with two separate monitors. Is this
correct?........and then you just go into device manager and load a
separate set of drivers?

Do the video cards have to be the same?
Do they have to run the same resolution \ color settings ?
Is the view expanded or completely separate.....do you see the desktop as a
bigger view or do you have the desktop on one monitor and some other
application on the other. Or can you do it either way and if so how do you
access the view with mouse or keyboard...is this anything like a UNIX console?
Do you notice any performance hit?
Perhaps you can give an example of how you use this feature.

Thanks for the clarification.
