In the real world, you could toss in two S3 Trio graphics cards and get
multi-monitor support, this worked as far back as the 98 product line.

I'm having trouble imagining any business case for adding this
functionality to VPC though, and would imagine you'd be more likely to
convince VMWare to do it since they are more open to experimental
features, and there is an actual profit center behind the product.
