How many on here use more than one monitor for work/play? I have one monitor, but I keep getting this nagging feeling that one more (or two) would feel real nice. Anyone recommend it or not? Opinions are welcome.

At work I have 2 monitors and its handy but at home I have just the 1 monitor and use a laptop or iPad to look up stuff as I am playing

A few years ago I rolled with 2 monitors but I found it quite problematic. Nothing really has "real" support for duel monitors. For example when playing an MMO I believe you should have the game running full screen on the left screen and the right screen taken by all the UI elements that normally block your view (maps could be HUUGE) but this doesn't happen.

The only benefit is so you can have websites or chat programs open at the same time but now I used a laptop for that and my PC power is entirely dedicated to the game instead of trying to display two monitors.

I think a PC and a Laptop is the better option than 2 monitors.

I have a 24in monitor that I use for my main screen. I use to have a smaller 16in that I kept to the side which I used for keeping movies or tv shows on while I was working and I really enjoyed it.
