Now I have a 20" widescreen monitor, and sometimes use my laptop as a second monitor if i need to leave something up and watch it run. I haven't tried virtualbox, is it much better than VMWare & Virtual PC? I loved having dual monitors (as you well know).

It does support dual monitors, but there's something about the thought process involved in working on multiple monitors that doesn't really sit well with my workflow. I dunno. It had me feelign really annoyed by the end of the day. I'm hoping it gets better, because aside from being really small, these monitors are pretty nice. Nope, it’s a Dell E6500.

Does the laptop support dual monitors, or do you have to use a DualHead? I had a laptop hooked up to a DualHead at my last job, and hated the way it worked. Windows has no idea that I had two monitors, so most things would just pop up in the split between both monitors. The only thing Matrox's software handled was getting windows to maximize on a single monitor -- everything else was wacky. Is that a Lenovo?
