The AGP is not an issue, since the transfer rate on the AGP bus is too slow
for these cards anyway. you can get PCI versions of these cards,
( some of them - nvidia i know, though very rare), and then have even
4/6/8 monitors on one computer, you could use up to 9 monitors (at least )
in W2K and XP.

Hi,
Gene is right, since there is only one AGP slot on any motherboard
multiple display cards in the same box is really a nightmare. at least 1
will be severely compromized, and if they are of different manufacture, you
will get this 3-way fingerpointing between manufacturers WHEN you start
having problems.
get one of those dual-head cards. i have a matrox and Nvidia Gforce4 cards
and they run like a champ.
