No but my video card does support it, so i could a full screen game on one monitor, and other stuff on another, would be useful if i had another monitor, and the room to put one there...

I'd like to have another monitor, but it's not supported by my video card, I can't afford another monitor, and my desk only supports one :)

No, watch the movie again. It's when Cipher is sitting there watching the Matrix and Neo asks him why they watch it encoded.

"I don't even see the code anymore. All I see is *points* blonde, brunette, redhead..."

i do. I have 2 nec 17" lcd 1760nx's got them from dell on sale. I stretch the desktop across both and it gives me alot of extra work room when coding. Once you have it though you will never want to sit at a computer again without them.


It does take some getting use to at first though. I guess it's cause im not use to glancing over and all. But now im even to the point I leave windows on half of each monitor and use them and not even worry about the small gap in between. It's ashame games do not stretch across :/


Im running it on a 128 meg geforce 4 4200ti one is a dvi out other mini dsub connection. But the dvi  im usin ga converter to dsub.

well ive seen monitor splitting cables at bestbuy for ~$30, and ive often heard about them.  alls it is a is a monitor cable's connector that u clip on there the 1 monitor would go, then it has 2 more input connectors so you can hook up more splitters or monitors.  its basically the same concept as a cable splitter....but i havent seen the ones for monitors in a while.................ewww took me a long time 2 write this..i have bad spelling 2nite

Just noticed this now, but anyways just about every computer in my high schools windows/linux computer lab has 2 moniters. Totaling around 30 computers.

Why would they do that?
