Gutted, do you have a link for part 6 of your video tutorial?
I have a dual monitor system; I may not have it figured out, but when I switch to the second monitor, the first one stops working. That is to say, I can run only one program at a time, but I can choose which monitor to view it on. So I think you need a second computer to run both programs.
With dual/quad cores, it is possible to run two separate programs and have two separate monitors, in theory, but someone with advanced computing skills would need to write the program. I am not sure but you may need two video cards to do this.
There are almost no programs that utilize the potentials of these systems.
The only solution available now, I think but may be wrong, is to have two computers.
