/**
 * The <code>GraphicsDevice</code> class describes the graphics devices
 * that might be available in a particular graphics environment.  These
 * include screen and printer devices. Note that there can be many screens
 * and many printers in an instance of {@link GraphicsEnvironment}. Each
 * graphics device has one or more {@link GraphicsConfiguration} objects
 * associated with it.  These objects specify the different configurations
 * in which the <code>GraphicsDevice</code> can be used.
 * <p>  
 * In a multi-screen environment, the <code>GraphicsConfiguration</code>
 * objects can be used to render components on multiple screens.  The 
 * following code sample demonstrates how to create a <code>JFrame</code>
 * object for each <code>GraphicsConfiguration</code> on each screen
 * device in the <code>GraphicsEnvironment</code>:
 * <pre>
 *   GraphicsEnvironment ge = GraphicsEnvironment.
 *   getLocalGraphicsEnvironment();
 *   GraphicsDevice[] gs = ge.getScreenDevices();
 *   for (int j = 0; j < gs.length; j++) { 
 *      GraphicsDevice gd = gs[j];
 *      GraphicsConfiguration[] gc =
 * 	gd.getConfigurations();
 *      for (int i=0; i < gc.length; i++) {
 *         JFrame f = new
 *         JFrame(gs[j].getDefaultConfiguration());
 *         Canvas c = new Canvas(gc[i]); 
 *         Rectangle gcBounds = gc[i].getBounds();
 *         int xoffs = gcBounds.x;
 *         int yoffs = gcBounds.y;
 *	   f.getContentPane().add(c);
 *	   f.setLocation((i*50)+xoffs, (i*60)+yoffs);
 *         f.show();
 *      }
 *   }
 * </pre>
 * <p>
