It is my understanding that windows '98 permits you to drive two
monitors simultaneously.


At least four. It is not technically difficult to set up. Install the cards and then go to video properties and activate and position the second monitor. The trick is getting video cards that will work. I believe there has been a lot of success with ATI cards. ATI Expert 98 has been favorably mentioned. $75 -$20 rebate = $55+/- thru Jan 31 if you look around.

Then, once you have it, how does the software know on which monitor to display an application when you open a new one?

I briefly used a multi monitor setup in Win98. I had problems with one of the monitors that I could not resolve. I recall the applications opened on the primary monitor and then I moved them around.
