     You were probably against a windowing interface when XWindows and 
   Macintosh came out, weren't you?!? ;-)  If I could do it easily with 
   standard VGA cards, I'd plunk down a bit of cash to re-use an aging but 
   functional VGA monitor to have as a second head on the system...

Indeed, I've been using dual-headed workstations since day one, I
cannot get any work done without at least two heads.  I'm trying to
add a third to my current workstation actually.  I need to keep a lot
of code context on the screen at once, and one 1280x1024 screen just
doesn't cut it at all.
