How do most people with Dual monitors have them being driven? I'm going to use a Rage Orion in conjunction with my Radeon, the Radeon driving the Studio Disply, and the Orion driving the AppleVision 21".

What problems have people noticed? I'm looking forward to playing a DVD on one screen, and working on the other. What cautions/recommendations can people give me on my potential setup?

Any help would be appreciated!

Use the larger monitor on the better card, unless you're tied down by ADC...

Hope you don't do anything processor intensive. DVD's are done in software now, since ths beige boxes, I believe. watching The Matrix now, but I have had trouble with DVD and OS 9.1. Enjoy the setup.
