I currently run two twenty-one inch monitors off of my dell poweredge server. Colorgraphics is the only way to go. There products have drivers for Windows 95, NT and NTS version 4.0. Good URL. Comments/Regards.

Justice Dept. Won't Block Microsoft Windows 98 With Browser Washington, March 12 (Bloomberg) - The U.S. Justice Department won't block Microsoft Corp. from issuing a version of its Windows 98 operating system that includes Internet browsing software, the Wall Street Journal Europe reported, citing people familiar with the case. Instead, Department officials are considering asking U.S. District Court Judge Thomas Penfield Jackson to order Microsoft to offer a separate version of Windows 98 that doesn't include Internet software, something the company would likely resist, the paper said. Mandating a version without the Internet Explorer browser would allow makers of personal computers, and not Microsoft, to decide whether the browser is installed on new PCs, the paper said. Microsoft is appealing a ruling by Judge Jackson requiring the company to provide a version of Windows 95 without Internet software. o~~~ O

Thanks Derek. Those are cool, but they don't have any prices which kind of makes me think they're mucho dinero. :-( I'm basically looking for a simple way to have charts and news on one screen and my broker and SI on the other one. (Or something similar to that configuration) I'm just finding one screen too dang crowded. I've heard that someone has a driver that allows you to use two monitors with ONE keyboard. Still haven't confirmed if Win 98 will allow this. If it does, I may just wait. I've been looking at second hand monitors in the paper and it wouldn't cost a lot to do this as long as the actual driver isn't gonna cost and arm and a leg.
