At home I have 2x 22". How else can I play games and chat to people/read walkthroughs/read the internet in the boring bits of the game? One 17″ at work is all they will give me. At home I have 2x 22″. How else can I play games and chat to people/read walkthroughs/read the internet in the boring bits of the game?

As mentioned above being able to reference one document while working on another at the same tiime is fast and efficient. At home 37" and 24" and work a laptop 15" & 24". At work we do all the meetings from our desk so watching someone else's screen while they talk and still be able to work on something else until they get to the part that is pertent to me. The whole using one big screen I find to just not split well when doing multiple tasks so I'd be interested in hearing more from the single monitor users on how they work on multiple issues at once.

I use 2x dual at work and 1 set of dual at home. Would love a 3 screen setup though as was mentioned earlier here, both at work and home. Maybe I'll invest in that when I can afford it ;) Dual screens > single screen. I use 2x dual at work and 1 set of dual at home.

In the beginning I was really disapointed. Next, I learnt to work on these two screens by splitting tasks on them. For instance, One screen for doc, one for code. Or One for 3D Soft, and one for 2D soft... Finally I think that two monitor is too small. I actually have a 4 monitor workstation and that's really great ! http://www.vbillet.fr/bureau.jpg I used dual screen since 2000… In the beginning I was really disapointed.

Can't imagine going back to a single screen. The split between the screens don't bother me since I rarely treat them as one large screen.. Debugging is really nice using both screens (code on one screen, app running on the other). It has the potential to help productivity, but I do know a fair number of folks who'd rather just have a single larger screen. Seems to be a personal preference type of thing.
