<FONT face=Arial
color=#0000ff size=2>As already mentioned by others windows will allow you to
stretch an app across multiple monitors. But since you are talking about 2
computers instead of just one that might not be what you're looking for.
If I were you I'd call/email those duudes and give them your configuration and
see what they have to say.

<FONT face=Arial
color=#0000ff size=2>I'd be very interested in what they tell
you!

society will never know if you don't tell them. And you're not going to
tell them ... are ... you!

Hi D,
Thanks for the reply. I am definitely no expert,
but I think that Remote Desktop actually does the opposite
of what I want to do - rather than see both computers on one screen, I
would like to stretch the desktop of one computer across both screens.
Right now, they are networked together but neither is equipped for multiple
monitors, and I was wondering what my options are for extending the
desktop via the network connection. I think the software you pointed out below
looks like a pretty good solution - cheap and easy : - )
Would you happen to know if there are other ways? Thanks again!
PS - Re the chair - I think I would fear for
society knowing that you are out there somewhere at the controls of
a piece of equipment like that : - ) How would
this affect civilization as we know it?
Your concerned friend Steve : -

color=#0000ff size=2>Hey Steve,
<FONT face=Arial
color=#0000ff size=2>
<FONT face=Arial
color=#0000ff size=2>I never did do what that old post says. Sorta forgot
about it in the madness I call my life.. sigh!
<FONT face=Arial
color=#0000ff size=2>
<FONT face=Arial
color=#0000ff size=2>Currently (and not what I eventually want) I have 3
monitors hooked up to my main system, Hulk, and that is networked to an
older Dell P3 1ghz machine and a Dell D400 Latitiude laptop which I can also
hook up via a wireless connection. That's all handled by a Nexland Turbo 800
Pro router that handles a crappy Adelphia cable modem and a DSL connection
that I had to get cause the cable service is so bad.
<FONT face=Arial
color=#0000ff size=2>
<FONT face=Arial
color=#0000ff size=2>One of the 3 montiors (an old Nokia 21" Tube) shares
duty right now on both Hulk and the Dell via a KVM switch from IOGear.
All I have to do is hit the ScrLk twice and it will switch from one
machine to the other. I tend to run only long or unattended jobs on the old
Dell so I don't need much in the way of a monitor on that
machine.
<FONT face=Arial
color=#0000ff size=2>
<FONT face=Arial
color=#0000ff size=2>I tried to install Win XP's remote desktop (I think
that's what its called) but it didn't "take" so I backed off and I haven't
persued it but that would be the better way to go IMHO as you could
have a small window on your monitor that would show what's happening on the
other machine(s). Its free and built in so those are big plusses. If
only I could get it to work. 8-).
<FONT face=Arial
color=#0000ff size=2>
<FONT face=Arial
color=#0000ff size=2>As for the laptop - I don't have it on all the time and
don't really need a fourth monitor right now as the 3 - 21" running at
1600x1200 give me plenty of screen real estate. Plus the resolution on the
laptop is pretty limited so its value as a monitor would be
small.
<FONT face=Arial
color=#0000ff size=2>
<FONT face=Arial
color=#0000ff size=2>As for your situation if you want to use both monitors
on both machines you could try the remote desktop and see if you can get it
to work or they make KVM's for sharing one keyboard/video/mouse with
multiple machines but I don't know about 1 keyboard/1 mouse/ 2 monitors with
multiple computers.

Hi D,
I saved this post from a while back. Right
now, I have 2 computers networked together, and I think I am ready to
implement some means of expanding my desktop so I will be able to use
both monitors off of 1 computer. It sounds like you have a pretty
good setup, so I would be interested in hearing your thoughts on doing
this via hardware vs. software, as well as any recommendations you might
have to offer. Thank you very much!
Steve

welcome !
