OK, so I have both monitors running in Xinerama mode now with the fresh install of 10.3A1. All is well. Do I dare try to install 2 different Nvidia drivers to get 3D activated? Can you even run 3D with dual Xinerama? Does beryl run on a dual monitor setup? Or should I just be happy that I got dual monitors running and leave it the heck alone !!??!!

Dual monitors are easy to setup yes you can have dual monitor beryl. I would try to get 3d acceleration to work. Whats the worse that could happen. (back up you old x config) good luck. Maybe its best to get a new card and run nivida 3d accell drivers ?
