Hal, multiple monitor feature has been available for Wintel prior to Win98, it's just that this is now a built-in feature. Prior to Win98, multiple monitor support was available through mid and hi-range video cards. I don't remember the brand, but a friend of mine paid $1,004 in March of 1997 for such a card, for doing AutoCad. Might have been the Elsa Gloria card. Of course, for $1,004 he got a lot more than multiple monitor support, so it's not like Win98 is going to eat off the plates of mid and hi-range card vendors.
