So, when is this beast coming out? The battle.net account names thing is driving me batty, lol.

Just add support for 256 monitors and be done with it

You could have more than 2 monitors by having multiple systems all linked to 1 keyboard and mouse. Pretty expensive though

How does one get more than 2 monitors up on one graphic card?

With todays technology, it is impossible to get more than 2 monitors on one graphic card. There might be "splitters" for your graphic card slots, but I don't know how will they would work with WoW or any other fullscreen game. Splitters might not even exist!

There's something called triplehead2go, lets you use 3 monitors on 1 video card.

The issue isn't whether or not windows can support more (we've seen it on 4 on this site already). The thing is whether or not Pwnboxer will correctly detect those 4 monitors. Currently, it doesn't. It'll only pickup two and not deal with the others. This is changed with Pwnboxer 2.0 as far as I know.

This would be deal killer for me - I run 3 monitors, I only run wow on 2, but I would still need to select WHICH 2 monitors I want to put my copies of wow on.

Isn't there some way to attach to the windows graphic API and just piggyback off of the OS configuration?

The new PB coming out is having a quick change added to it for up to 4x monitor support.

Internally, Pwnboxer supports 1000s of monitors, it just comes down to making the GUI still look sexy.
