Larry, That's a snap on the Mac. All you need is a second video card. Drop in the new card, install the software, connect the second monitor, restart, and you're in business. Use the Monitors control panel to define which monitor is your main monitor. Video cards, such as the 8 Mb iX3D Ultimate Rez can be had for $49 (www.macsales.com), or you can buy something more recent, like the XClaim VR 128, with 16 Mb of VRAM for only $120 (www.buy.com).
