I got really bored today and decided to use my laptop and normal computer monitor in conjunction creating a "DS effect". My laptop's video card has a function that allows me to have the desktop show up on both monitors. So, I can move one window from the bottom screen to the top screen, stretch pages to span both screens, etc. It's actually quite fun while using it. :)

people who use multi-monitors tend to use each monitor for a different thing. one for internet browsing, and another for your music program and chat programs, and such.

i know that i would be unable to skip a large black area to continue reading what i was reading, so i would do what i discribed most people do..
