Multi monitors ..... Digital LCD

I want to buy two IBM T55D LCD monitors and run them on one card. The only card that I have found that will run two or
four "digital" monitors is made by STB. IBM can ship with a card made by Matrox but I will need to buy a second Matrox
G200 card for the second monitor, and an add-on daughter board to allow both monitors to run. Has anyone out there had any
experience with the "Symmetry PCI-multi-port adapter" (STB MVP PRO 128)

stbmvp.com

Does their software (specialized drivers) known as the STB Virtual Desktop that allow users to operate with seamless mouse
operations from one display to the next slow down the refresh rates.

Will this software make any difference in performance .. I will be running Windows NT 4.0 or will NT's built in multi support
give me good mouse control. I have not experienced two monitors but need the extra desktop space. Also will be looking at
256 ram P2B and a processor in the 400 or 500 area . any ideas... thanks
