Why use one monitor when 2 is so much cooler?

Here's something that incoming college freshmen are wowed at when they walk through the business school of their new university; dual monitors.

Having two monitors instead of one can be almost intimidating at first and troublesome to learn, but when mastered on how to balance the use they can be an unbelievable asset to increasing productivity. Whether using a specific monitor dedicated to only e-mail (and facebook) while the other one is for applications or navigating fluently through a full set of programs on each unit, life can be easier by having two monitors instead of one.

The control panel on your computer makes it fairly simple to figure out the configuration of external monitor sharing, even allowing you to indicate whether the monitors are aligned side by side or placed one on top of the other. So although it looks like high end stock brokers and young online poker pros are the only ones currently adapting to the use of dual screen computers, the actuality is that this can be a great opportunity to help increase efficiency for any small business. In my world, it would be a remarkable benefit to be able to have different stages of designs on the two monitors. One can be something such as the client's rendition of what they may be dreaming of and the second monitor can be my graphic design coming to life without having to constantly flip back and forth between programs and screens. Who knows, hopefully we'll grown enough that at some point I'll even need to incorporate 3 or even 4 screens!
