Fred, Multiple displays have been standard with Mac OS since Mac OS 7. I had three displays on a PPC 8100 machine back in 1995. Doc is using a XServe machine (good if you want a rack mount system, bad if you need multiple video cards - only two slots) with the regular Aqua GUI. The maximum number of displays currently possible on a Mac Pro is eight (four NVIDIA GeForce 7300 GT dual head cards, a build to order option at the Apple Store).
