Or you can cut your chances of getting cancer in half by sticking to your 
trusty desktop switcher :)  The only employers I know that bust the bling 
for dual display are game developers and graphics artists.  I always have 
less monitors than I do computers because extra monitors are wasteful and 
expensive.  It's like buying an SUV; my old crt will always look better 
than your new dual flat-panel.

Besides, I bet the employee satisfaction from having two monitors alone 
probably attributes to the the 10%, yes, only 10% increased productivity. 
I can get more productivity by increasing wages, benefits or attending to 
cultural and social agendas and needs!  I don't need a study to tell me 
that either, although i'm sure they've been done many times.

Usually studies that show such a small variation in performance and have 
commercial contributors [NEC] are found to be false.

Subject:        [luau] Slashdot: Multiple Monitors Increase Productivity

Today's Slashdot has an interesting topic on dual monitors:

http://developers.slashdot.org/developers/03/10/09/137232.shtml?tid=137&tid=196

The majority of Linux users still are not aware that multiple monitors 
are not only available in Linux, we actually have more flexibility and 
better options than Microsoft Windows.  (This has been briefly discussed 
in my previous thread.)

Once you get used to multiple monitors, it is so addictive, especially 
for doing desktop chores, there is no looking back.
