First of all no question if it's sincere is ever stupid ! Now about the
windows.... it's just as if you would open a second app in a second window now,
just drag the window to the other monitor ... simple ! There is a control Tab
(under display in your control panel) that lets you position your other
monitor(s) (for windows to allow you to drag the app off screen 1) on either
side or above or below your main monitor ....  works very well.

Your limitation on the number of monitors is directly related to the number of
slots you have for cards ( if I remember correctly Ii think that the limit of
the Win98 OS is 15 monitors). I use this set up with TS and really like it.
