I know how to switch which of my monitors gets the menu bar... but is there any way to have them BOTH have the menu bar?
Use mirrored mode instead of screen extension mode.

No, it wouldn't. It's a perfectly reasonable request. The placement of the menubar is the single greatest usability flaw in Mac OS X at the moment. As high-resolution screens and multiple monitors get more and more popular, it gets more and more ridiculous.No. It would be like having 2 steering wheels in a car.

If I have a small little application open in the bottom-right corner of my second monitor, it makes no sense to make me move the cursor across both screens to get to the menubar. Replicating the menus on both screens would go very far in fixing this.
Install DejaMenu to have a popup menubar appear at the cursor with a key combination.No, it wouldn't. It's a perfectly reasonable request. The placement of the menubar is the single greatest usability flaw in Mac OS X at the moment.
this topic has been beaten to death so bad, the Menedez brothers feel bad for it.

Now my memory isn't what it used to be, but that was only 19 years ago... well, on second thought, many in these forums weren't even born then, so you have a point!But I wonder how many people here remember or have ever even heard of them?![]()
Easy fix for this one. In Preferences choose display. Then click on Arrangement. Grab the little white menubar that is situated on the top of one of the blue monitor icons and drag it to the other blue monitor icon.
Voila - you've moved the menu bar![]()
Install SecondBar, it adds a menubar to extra monitor. OS Lion compliant and works great.
