Greg, Server isn't, or rather wasn't since its no longer available, for desktop use. Player is petty good considering its free but Workstation is the way to go if you're going to be using it for any length of time. I've been working exclusive within Workstation for at least 6 years now. Multiple monitor support is pretty good except for a bug with windows 7 guests where it will switch back to a single monitor whenever you install software. Possibly also when you get that administrator access prompt. The important thing to remember is you have to have the tops of each monitor level (in the settings no physically) and start with the first monitor on the left.
