If you're looking to go dual headed, don't mess around -- just buy a
Matrox G450 instead of the GeForce. Unless you're planning on running
at 1600x1200x32bpp, I doubt you'll notice the speed advantage of the
GeForce anyway. The G450 is a pretty fast card in its own right (and
also gives the crispest 2D image I've seen of *any* graphics card).
