On my 2 monitor setup, it works just fine. Just for reference it's a iMac 19" with a 19" sony trinitron external monitor with a hack to enable the desktop extension (Didn't come that way from the factory... Just desktop mirroring.) The only way I can reproduce what you are talking about is if I actually stretch the browser screen across both screens end to end... Which then it centers really well in the middle of both monitors which is what I would expect. -- Jason Pruim Raoset Inc.
