Hey everyone,
Added a new page, was sort of an accident, but turned out to be good in my
opinion and fits well with the section I think.
Also reviewed and revised 2 other documents that were listed as outdated.
Here are my diffs:

+<title>Enable a second monitor</title>
+
+<p>Having a second monitor is great for multitasking and setting it up is
quick and easy to do
+by following these simple steps.</p>
+
+<p>Note: Only certain computers are capable of supporting two displays,
make sure you
+have proper outputs on your video card, and that your card is able to
support this feature.</p>
+
+<steps>
+<item><p>To get started, ensure that you have your second monitor attached
to your
+video card, then click the icon at the very right of the panel and select
+<gui>System Settings</gui>. Next, In the <gui>Hardware</gui> section select
<gui>Monitors</gui>.
+</p></item>
+<item><p>Click the rectangle that says your monitors name, such as XYZ
Brand 23. To enable it,
+you will want to change the setting at the top of the dialog from
<gui>Off</gui> to <gui>On</gui>;
+then select the appropriate resolution that your monitor supports, refresh
+rate, and rotation (if necessary). If you're unsure which settings to use
then refer to your
+monitor's manual for configuring the appropriate settings.</p></item>
+
+<item><p>To test out the new configuration hit the <gui>Apply</gui> key, if
it looks right
+hit <gui>Close</gui>. If the monitor is not in the right location virtually
in contrast to its
+actual physical location then you can drag the monitors' rectangle around
to the appropriate
+location.</p></item></steps>
+
+<p>At default, different images are displayed on each monitor, if you wish
to enable the
+same image across both monitors then tick the box titled <gui>Same image in
all monitors</gui>
+and then <gui>Apply</gui>. You also have the option to create a shortcut to
the <gui>Monitors</gui>
+application by enabling <gui>Show monitors in panel</gui>, which will then
place itself
+in the panel.</p>

-<p>Viruses are programs which causes problems if they manage to find their
way onto your computer. A common way of them getting onto your computer is
through email messages.</p>
-
-<p>Viruses which can affect computers running Linux are quite rare, so you
are <link xref="net-antivirus">unlikely to get a virus through email or
otherwise</link>. If you receive an email with a virus hidden in it, it will
probably have no effect on your computer. As such, you probably don't need
to scan your email for viruses.</p>
-
-<p>You may, however, wish to scan your email for viruses in case you happen
to forward a virus from one person to another. For example, if one of your
friends has a Windows computer with a virus and sends you a virus-infected
email, and you then forward that email to another friend with a Windows
computer, then the second friend might get the virus too. You could install
an anti-virus application to scan your emails to prevent this, but it's
unlikely to happen and most people using Windows and Mac OS have anti-virus
software of their own anyway.</p>

+<p>Viruses are misleading or malicious programs which cause problems if
they manage to

+<p>Viruses that affect computers running Linux are rare, so you are

+If you receive an email with a virus attached in it, either attached or
linked to, it will
+most likely have no effect on your computer. In most scenarios you will not
need to
+scan your emails for viruses.</p>
+
+<p>You may, however, wish to scan your email for viruses in case you happen
to forward emails to
+friends or colleages that run non-Linux operating systems. For example, if
you recieve an email
+with a virus attached that you then forward to others, you may not be
affected by the virus but
+your friends or colleagues may be if their computer is prone to an exploit
that the virus takes
+advantage of. You could install an anti-virus application to scan your
emails to prevent this,
+but it's unlikely to happen and most people using Windows and Mac OS have
anti-virus software of
