TechWhirl (TECHWR-L) is a resource for technical writing and technical communications professionals of all experience levels and in all industries to share their experiences and acquire information.
For two decades, technical communicators have turned to TechWhirl to ask and answer questions about the always-changing world of technical communications, such as tools, skills, career paths, methodologies, and emerging industries. The TechWhirl Archives and magazine, created for, by and about technical writers, offer a wealth of knowledge to everyone with an interest in any aspect of technical communications.
I can't find the source of this thread (re: postings by Geoff Hart, William
Newkirk, Emru Townsend, Arlen Walker, et al) but have a suggestion that
might help. Consider Hummingbird's Exceed connectivity product. It is
capable of configuring Windows machines to run network/local applications
(UNIX based too!) simultaneously on multiple monitors. You can also
distribute one display over multiple monitors.
