dual is usually 1 desktop over both |

I dont think i've ever seen one where you can have your own start menus.
http://www.nvidia.com/object/feature_nview.html Nview has some cool features, but i dont think it lets you have different start menus/task bars? Never used it myself as i dont have two monitors

if you think about your question real hard, am pretty sure you will see that it can't be done.
not with a standard monitor.

If you did the usual 2 monitor deal and then ran a separate instance of your OS in VirtualPC in the 2nd monitor
pain in the ass if you ask me |

All you need is a Matrox G550 or G450 and you can find it any nearly every retailer. It comes with good software for REALLY managing your desktop across two monitors. If you're like me, you'll graduate to THREE monitors and buy the Matrox Parahelia card.
Cheers, Brad
