Agree that the "total" display would look incongrous.  The objective was 
to demo "proof of concept"   

As I said in my follow up post, we used a dual port video card with 
dedicated memory and two LCD panels (same make/size resolution 1440x900 
each).  It was very impressive.  The only thing we did not like was the 
sides of each LCD panel breaking up the continuity of the image but you 
get more real estate.  For example, it is a great setup for video 
editing (Cinelerra), the various windows can be positioned in one of 
the 2 screens.
