That would just about seal the deal for me. I don't do anything require heavy graphics firepower; just want the screen space.

Anybody know how to run two monitors with one little Mini?

There may be accessories that let you run two monitors with the same image on them (kind of like signal amplifiers), but no way to run monitors in spanning mode that I'm aware of.

For the extra $150 the DualHead2Go costs, you may as well just get a 20" iMac and run the second display from that. A mini configured up as much as possible to match an iMac is $1,225 (biggest hard drive, 1 GB RAM, and the DualHead2Go), and the base 20" iMac is $1,500. For the extra $275, the iMac has a faster 64 bit processor, an extra FireWire port, a bigger and faster hard drive, a much better graphics chip with more VRAM, and includes the 20" LCD.

I didn't say it made sense, I was just showing that it was possible.

Did you know that there's a Compact Flash adapter for the Apple II? I don't know why, but it exists...

Nothing against your link Grimster, but what a chunk of crap!
Dialog boxes appear split between the screens! Also, it is finicky as hell.

Also, don't make fun of my AppleII CF card reader!
I'm gonna get this thing running as a photo server any day now!

I haven't had the opportunity to compare, but aren't the video chipsets in the Mac mini and the MacBooks the same? The MacBook can drive two displays... (one is internal).

On a related note, I've never quite understood how "dual link DVI" works... does that mean that, on a MacBook Pro, if I had the right adapter, I could run two displays of lesser resolution than the 30"?

All our winders boxes that run dual monitors, the pop-up message are always split between the two screens. It's windows's fault it sucks.
