2 monitors with 1 computer possible?

Yes you can have up to 9 monitors.
Your operating system must be a Windows 2000 or up.
For each monitor you need to afford a PCI or AGP video card.
For a laptop you need PCMCIA cards to insert the additional video cards or a docking station.
Once iserted, you can go to Dipslay applet in Control Panel and manage your monitors.

Actually that isnt right. Some monitors come with 2+ monitor outputs.

2 monitors on 1 computer
I went to the store where I bought my laptop and the technicians said that doing this on my laptop would be something I'd have to contact manufacturer about, which implies money I don't have.

I am no longer pursuing this topic.

Thanks to everyone
