Dual Displays, What fun to have?

[Mammoth]

Okay I have a ghetto dual display monitor with 2 17" monitors, and I want to do some fun things with it. .....What would all that fun stuff be?

Play games?
I'm not sure I totally understand your question.

Umm
use it so you can see all of your windows at once.

Look at it?

I have to have dual displays so when I'm designing/developing I don't go completely insane flipping between apps every 2 seconds. I would think that just having more application space is a really obvious advantage of a dual monitor setup, I'm not sure what else you think there might be.

Besides having double the workspace, I meant what cool tricks are there? Ie: Span video across both screens, etc.

I have messed with spanning the image and frankly when your doing anything that space between the displays no matter how small will bug the crap out of you.



I doesn't see how people can work with only one monitor. I guess once you go dual you never go back. Even with multiple desktops and spaces and all that jazz, still nothing comes close to dual displays, just absolutely irreplaceable.
