Can you run dual monitor setup on the Amiga like on Windows if you have more than one Zorro graphics board?


Actually I did that back in '93 when I bought my graphics board - but I had three monitors attached: my old 15" Mitsubishi on the flickerfixer, my then new ADI 17" on the Merlin and an A2024 on the DB-23 connector.
Obviously the A2024 could not be independantly refreshed, but I built something very weird with different screen modes, so that I could use the ECS workbench and the Merlin while the A2024 display remained static (Shapeshifter display) and could be updated manually. I tried to repeat this two years ago to show off how cool the Amiga was ten years previously, but I couldn't do it any more...  ;-)
