I'm pretty sure I've a spare 17" CRT with your name on it Paul, drop me
a PM if interested.

I'm using a G550 with Dapper, which gives the same on both monitors more
or less by default.  Those cards and the G4xx series are very affordable
now.  Another likely option is to add a PCI graphics card alongside the
existing PCI/AGP/onboard: AFAIK there's little difference between that
and using a single dual output card.
