Dual Display Adapters

Forgive a newbie's ignorance if this question has been asked and answered alot I apolgize, did a search and couldn't find it so here goes:

Why to the Radeon Drivers setup two display adapters (primary and secondary) when I'm only using one? Is this normal? I never noticed it with Catalyst drivers until i changed from a 8500 to a 9700 Pro. TIA

Its an optional feature thats included in the 9000's and above that allows you to hook up an additional display adapter(monitor).

Is there a way to get rid of the additional display or is it normal?
