How does one do *dual DVI display out* on the MBP - like when you're at a desk and plan to work off dual displays & a standalone keyboard/mouse ?

I use Visio heavily and am planning to ~convert~ and get a MBP . I plan to either run it vis-a-vis Bootcamp which is ++ since there seems to be native x64 drivers or just with VMWARE Fusion

This may be a simple or not so simple question, but if under Windows, how does the unit behave things like Power Manager, or even using *function* keys - brightness control, etc if I used it under Bootcamp ?

You need to get a "splitter" like the Matrox [Dual|Triple]Head2Go, will allow you to combine two monitors that the OS sees as one large monitor. It's not a perfect solution, but I think it's something that I'll be doing myself pretty soon.
