It's doable, Wayne worked it out for FSX and P3D uses the same method. 
One thing you WILL see unless you're using NThusim is a thin black line 
around the "active" window.  The guys at Immersaview (Nthusim/Sol7) 
actually added a feature that will crop the display by a single pixel to 
remove that border.

After doing some reading on the P3D forum, it seems that the the 
recommended way of doing this is to have a slave machine doing all the 
video work and a "master" machine that's panel only.  This is doable with 
their $10/month 2 license developer version.

BTW, some of you may have been getting bounces due to Sorbs thinking your 
ip address was a spam source.  I've removed them from my mail 
configuration so this shouldn't happen again.  If you DO get a bounce, 
please forward it to me so I can get it taken care of.

Political correctness is a doctrine, fostered by a delusional, illogical
minority, and rabidly promoted by an unscrupulous mainstream media, which
holds forth the proposition that it is entirely possible to pick up a turd
by the clean end.
