>>What's more, you can plug four displays to your PowerMac (or more with a PCI expander box), and stretch a movie window to cover all of them, and hit play, and you'll have a wall of video spanning all of those displays. Try that on a PC. Oh wait, it works. Okay, try it on a PC without Apple's QuickTime.<<

Dave -

Though Windows has supported multiple displays and expanded desktops for a while now, from what I've read it doesn't work well at all unless you use identical video cards, running at the same resolution and color depth.

But we can't expect Microsoft to make things too easy for people, can we? .-) They try, bless their hearts, but even Office X, as great as it is, retains many of the annoying traits of Office for Windows.
