Agreed with all of the above: I've run dual monitors at home for well over a year now, a 20" main and an older 17" beside that I use to hold my tools for apps that support it, some apps that always open there (like Winzip and Winamp), and that I throw a second browser window or document on when I need it. I just ordered a new computer that will come with a 20" flatscreen, so I'll run the 2 20s. We run desktop replacement laptops at work and I'm agitating to make sure the next one I get runs dual outputs. Just because of the work I do, I spend a ton of time comparing documents and right now, when crunch time comes, it's often faster for my to bring the files home and work from there just in terms of the reduction in scrolling and window-flipping that has to go on.
