Does anybody know if there are plans for a twin view card above Geforce 2 MX spec??? Possibly GeForce 3???
Upon closer examination of my geforce 3 card, it looks like there are spots for a second VGA-out... so I would say yes, the geforce 3 will one day, maybe in the next MX release, be dual monitor capable.

im not sure if this is correct but i remember reading somewhere that the GF3, the way it is now, can have TV-out but couldn't support twinview because of the crazy architecture or something
the gf3mx will hopefully have twinview, its the only reason i have a gf2mx instead of a gts or ultra
anyway you might wanna look this up cuz im sure i read it

I think the above posts are on the mark. I'm not sure about the architicture of the current GeForce 3 or the new NV chip but once the price goes down due to competition and increased demand, they will more than likely have a varation of the 3 or NV w/ twin-view. It has to do w/ the individual board manufacturer as well. They have a refrence design that they can play with and as Pinky mentioned, it looks as though the traces for those "extras" are already on a lot of cards.
