Question on AIW 9600, 2 Monitors and TV Out

I am considering upgrading my AIW 9000 to an AIW 9600 to get multiple
monitor support.

Right now I have the AIW 9000 with one 17" LCD and TV-out in theater
mode. This setup works fine, but I would like to get more screen area
(for office-type work) by adding a second 17" LCD.

Ideally, I would like to have two 17" LCDs (both VGA only - no DVI) and
TV-out in theater mode. The TV-out could be cloned on the secondary LCD
monitor, if necessary.

Is this doable? Any gotchas?

Thanks,

Peter

current cards only have 2 outputs (thats only 2 out of 3, vga, dvi, tv out)
only the matrox so called 512bit card has 3
i have an ati 9800 pro, i use a VGA and the tv out, and an extra pci card
for another VGA
matrox mystquie 220 4 meg, somehow i got it to do 1152x864 @ 100hz, 16bit
i had a pci ATI 7000, but for some reason it went unstable and i had to go
back to my old matrox card

you can only clone to the same card really, so you could put your primary
display on the pci card, and your secondary on your second lcd, and tv,
however i think this setup would be crap :)
