Just one. I hope everyone understands he means 2+ monitors on one PC.

Having more than 1 monitor is fun, even if you don't need it, it makes things much more organised and less cluttered :)

It's funny when my friends come over, they're like "woah, you can move stuff to each screen, cool!"

yeah - getting a wallpaper that'll look good on both desktops at different resolutions is going to be tricky. i'm going to assume that dual-mon systems are configured side-by-side.

What's your GFX card Frag?

ATI Radeon 9600XT :)

Edit - Martyr, how do you have 3 screens? Matrox Tri Head card or just one GFX card with 2 monitors and one with 1?

Fair enough :)

Even though people say it's overkill, I'd much prefer to have more than 1 monitor, makes things much nicer :)

oh, not overkill at all. imagine a regular day of, for example, hurried flash web development. on monitor one (top center) you have messenging services, irc, and music. monitor two (left main row) you have opera, ie, mozilla, and ftp client. monitor three (center main row) you have flash and a half-dozen explorer windows, and on monitor four (right main row) you have photoshop, the other ftp, notepad, dreamweaver, and another few explorer and ie windows.

this is how i spent last summer, btw.
