I'm thinking about trying to get my hands on one for a weekend and do an
install of win2k (maybe XP if I can locate a copy) from scratch instead of
installing a standard company image.  It's quite possible the people that
built the image broke the drivers in the process

BAHAHAHAH !  Ever tried to find any useful information on IBM's site?  The
T30 uses a radeon chipset that I know for a fact DOES do dual head, the only
question is whether the T30 is designed in such a way that it is possible to
enable it.  A mate of mine has an A31 which uses an identical chipset and he
managed to get the dual head stuff going today without any dramas... so I'm
kinda hopeful.

Cheers
Michael
