Default 2 monitors anyone?

I am curious how many of us are running 2 computer monitors. I am running 2 21” Dell’s and I absolutely love it; I will never go back to just 1 monitor.

Well a couple reasons.

When looking at drawings online and doing a take-off, you don't need to minimize the screen each time to copy and paste. I also keep my outlook open on 1 of the for the same reason, I don't need to minimize the screen.

It makes it easier as I have an off-site server that I load stuff on and it's just a matter of drag and drop.

Back away from the light James! It's a sickness. I have 3 and don't know how I ever managed with 2.
I think it is easier for me to stay organized. I can keep pictures of the structure on the left screen, the plans on the middle screen and the takeoff on the right screen (or any combination thereof)

Now I like that.

It did take a little while to get used to 2 of them, not sure if I am ready for 3 yet. But I will have to think about it.

I can say for sure that with 2 (or 3) monitors you feel like you can work more efficiently. Like I said I will never go back to 1 monitor.

What kind of monitors do you have? I've got 20" ViewSonics and couldn't be happier.

I am running dual 21" Dell's and love it. With the size of the monitors, I have even watched a couple of TV shows on 'em.
