This one time at a PC trade show, Micron demonstrated a motherboard chipset that permitted dual AGP ports: Micron SamuraiDDR. IIRC the board with that particular featureset was called Micron Madison.
The Madison dual Slot 2 board would have basically used two North Bridge chipsets, which would separate the two AGP slots.
My guess as to why they did this was "multi-monitor without compromising by reverting to PCI" but IDK for sure. Someday I'd like the real story on it. 😀
