That's nice Jens, but now the z scale is different for the two plots. Similar problems also occur with a two rectangle approach. I believe that GraphicsArray should be used less often than it is, mainly when one wants to assemble a series of plots that have the same overall plot ranges, but different sets of data. If one wants to directly compare two curves or surfaces, it is better to render them in the same plot.
