If you go with NT, you will be quite limited in your options re: multi monitor setup. That is because NT doesn't natively support it. There are only a few video card vendors that have created drivers that will do it, and they involve multiple PCI cards. So, if you go with 4 monitors, you will probably not have enough slots available, depending on what other cards you have in the computer. Diamond Vipers and some of Matrox's cards have the support for MM in NT. There may be others. Not necessarily. The Appian graphics solutions mentioned are a single card driving 4 monitors and support NT 4.0. I met numerous traders at TAOTL who like their cards due to good driver support and easy of installation. He should look at Color graphics as well. For those who don't want to spend a lot of time with it these more expensive solutions might be the way to go... Sean
