Lee, From my viewpoint how would you enumerate a virtual monitor? 
(and if we could figure this out, "real" monitors could be treated as 
virtual ones.)

The only way that I can visualize this would be to allow the user to 
"somehow" specify his setup.
and if you came up with a scheme - where would save the "specifications"

I like the idea of being able to do so, but don't see a way to implement 
it at a "virtual level" -
and it would probably have to be done at a virtual level, to avoid 
attempts to interact with
 the actual hardware and device drivers....

I agree that it is not a "big deal", but it sure would be useful for 
those of us having multiple
monitors and/or projectors.

just my thoughts...
