Hi all.  I have a second monitor (VGA) and an extra video card (also
VGA) that I would like to put on as a debugging monitor.  A couple of
questions about this.  Do "normal" PCs allow having multiple
monitors/video cards on 1 motherboards or does the card have to be
monochrome or can I just not do it at all.  I do realize (I think) that
if I tried to hook up a VGA monitor to a mono card, I would have to have
a converter plug, but I don't want to go out and buy another card and
converter plug for nothing and I REALLY don't want to freakout my board,
so I thought I'd ask you nice people.  Any feedback is much appreciated.
