Yeah. Essentially, Matrox added dual adapter support to their drivers way
before it became something the OS offered as standard.

You have to have 2 Matrox cards to do it but it works on WinNT 4.0 (we did
that) and I imagine Win9x (never tried it myself tho).

At one point, you could buy Matrox Mystiques for dirt-cheap prices since
they had _really_ crappy first cut 3D and never sold well in the 3D market.

So we bought lots - I don't know where they've ended up now - our painting
bugs are long since squished and we 'retired' the K6 200 boxes we had them
in some time ago.

TTFN,
  Paul.
