Hello, anyone think of a way to do this? I have crappy PC provided by work that has a docking station and allows me to do it by using a DVI and a VGA output to drive two monitors. This is the PC's saving grace - other than that it is sh**.

If I could do the same with a MAC I would buy one for work and give the PC to the wife.

Any ideas? Screenshots?

Rgds, steve

Why don't you connect the second monitor via USB DisplayPort adapter? I do this with my laptop at work (admittedly a Win7 machine, but I see no reason why this wouldn't work with a Mac).

I paid around £50 for my 'Kensington Universal Multi-Display Adapter', and it works like a champ. I am pretty sure I tested this with my Mac, but I'm not completely sure - so look around for some reviews.
