Hi James,> I read about this card some place and for the life of me at present

The July/August edition of Computer Pilot magazine has a brief description on page 12. It has an astonishing picture with it showing what looks to be a three TFT panel with FS in real wide screen spread across it. I don't know if that's a real device or an artist's impression!
But of course it doesn't show the frame rate on the screen! <G>
All past efforts to allow the 3D view to be spread over more than one screen, or to open up more than one such window, have resulted in unflyable frame rates. So I have to reserve judgement on this -- one of you will have to rush out and buy one, and come back and tell us! <G>

Yes, same if you just try to spread a single view over the two (or more) screens. Maybe the Parhelia will solve this for us?

I've given up having second monitors now and just have more computers, one monitor to each, instead. <G>
