Re: [CAD_CAM_EDM_DRO] Double Monitors

Hi John

Others will (have) give you the answers for MS Windows - For my part, dual
head displays are a joy to use. I currently have two cards in my main desktop
machine, an ATI Rage and an Appian Cirrus based card. Setting up XFree86-4.10
was errm interesting (not that will help you). But having EMC running on one
screen with a backplotter in another along with all the other GUI utilities
is real cool.

Regards, Paul.
