for me everything slows down alot if i move it to other monitor. maybe it works reverse for you 2 (slow down, and speed up on other monitor)

Why do so much people have a second monitor? I would rather buy myself a 30'' Screen (which costs about 1000â‚¬) than a second screen...

but sometimes it could be usefull... the Dolphin Games on left screen, dolphin main window on the right (mostly because the fps-counter still shows vps, but dolphins main window shows the real fps.

believe me, 2 monitors > 1 big monitor
specially when you are multitasking

Why not both?
I'm actually going to buy a 32'' - thing, and I'm going to use my current 22'' as second monitor. Thats going to be awesome Big Grin

I guess for work purposes it could usefull (editing photos, video, 3D) but my 24" have space for two browser-size programs next to each other, or 4-6 folder explorers, so I've really got no need for a second monitor. Maybe some people like to play games full screen and do other stuff at the same time (I prefer playing games without anything else disturbing)

Afaik, and I know pretty much, there is no restriction why you shouldn't be able to use 2 monitors of different size (even if I can't use them to play games dual-monitored properly; but thats not what I want...).
