Reasons:
1. I didn't think of that.
2. The video controller I had didn't support two heads.
   (For a completely unrelated reason I ended up having to
   replace it, and the new controller could do that.  Oh well.)
3. Less desk space required.  (Not a big deal.)
4. Until reading your email I had never seen those funky dual
   monitors on a single stand.
5. Breaking up the screen is sometimes inconvenient.  One of
   the tasks I do is edits using gimp.  The bigger the screen,
   the better.
