Does anyone know how, or even if, one can run two or more monitors from the same computer?

You can, but you need a video card capable of doing so. Do a web search on dual monitor video card to find some.

Thanks ScottGem.. will do so now

Hi, the following document should tell you all you need to know!:

http://www.mediaatlantic.com/guides/MediaAtlantic_Guide_to_dual_display_multiple_monit ors.pdf

It's a pdf doc, so you may need the free pdf reader from Adobe (http://www.adobe.com) to see it.

Cheers
