Dual monitor rocks
i picked up a visiontek 9600xt with dual output and hooked up my roommates monitor to see how fun dual monitors would be and boy it rocks.....

Gives you twice as much screen space, I think. Although I've no idea how it works How do you move your mouse from one to t'other?

I've seen one in operation before, it just worked as one large monitor.

Things like having Dreamweaver maximised on one screen, and Firefox maximised on the other, or maybe Photoshop. Or maybe have the help pages for something.
Yeah, it just works like one big monitor - instead of stopping at the right hand edge, the mouse pointer would just move over onto the right hand screen. I have it on my computer, but have the other screen plugged into the TV for watching movies - I have multiscreen disabled normally.

I think I would find that quite hard to get used to

I think I would get used to it quite quickly, it would be good for playing movies on if your screens had very small plastic borders... A real 2:1 screen like at the cinema...

Its the kind of thing that would take a bit of getting used to, but once you get used to it, going back would be quite painful... A bit like the IE to Firefox change.

Whoo! Firefox! (Sorry, I couldn't help myself, it really does rock though, so much better than IE).
