Hello All,

I am a PC user and will be getting my first Mac next month. I have a question regarding a multi-display setup for the new iMacs:

Its my understanding that a second monitor can be connected somewhat easily (can someone verify?). I actually want to connect two (2) monitors for a 3 monitor display setup. Is this possible? Here's specifically what I'd like to know:

1. I have two PC monitors I'm looking to use, what kind of adapter do I need to connect them? (link to website I can buy from is helpful).

2. Is there such a thing as a splitter so I can in fact use 2 additional monitors as opposed to just one? (again, links are helpful)

3. Provided they can be connected, these would act as individual displays right? i.e. not mirrored.

BTW, I've always found it difficult searching on vBulletin boards. If what I'm asking has already been answered before, please excuse my impatience and point to the existing thread.

Thanks so much for any help.
