[WEB4LIB] Hi,

[Justin Scott]

Another option would be to replace your current video card with a Matrox 
Millennium G400 card with the "dual head" feature (runs 2 monitors from one 
card). I'm not sure if it handles 2 different resolutions, but you could 
probably fake it. It seems to be able to do just about everything else. The 
web page is at http://www.matrox.com/mga/products/mill_g400/features.htm.

Alternately, the QuickRes program that someone else mentioned is a great 
(and free!) option. There is an "enhanced" version called MultiRes, still 
free, available from http://www.entechtaiwan.com/.  It runs on NT and seems 
to be pretty solid. It's available from the "Free Software" area, about 
halfway down the page.
