While I’m not quite as hardcore as some people mentioned in this article, I do have to agree with the fact that once you go dual monitor, you can’t go back! Unfortunately I do have to visit client sites with my laptop and bringing a second LCD isn’t really an option. (Lol, can you imagine?) But honestly, having a second monitor to work with is so much nicer when you’re working with multiple applications, documents, etc. While on the subject, ComputerWorld has an article showing that power use of LCDs are pretty low and typically isn’t going to put a hole in your wallet. The issue with applications loading to a non-existant monitor when you’re ack to one LCD, can be easily resolved with UltraMon mentioned in a previous post.
