My advice is to do away with toolboxes if at all  possible and use
shortcut keys, with practice it's much faster.

The stuff I have open (did I say toolboxes? I really meant palettes):
Histogram in "all channels view" (large size)
Navigator (sized to the same width as the histogram),
Info, History, Layers, and the standard toolbox.

I can't really do without any of them as hotkeys don't convey information, and I don't really want to be constantly opening and closing these palettes all the time - only two of them have hotkeys in CS2.

For my web development work I have loads of apps open and I often need access to all of them at once. A combination of Desktop Manager, Exposé and the task switcher's "Hide" command make it bearable... just. I feel like I've been a bit spoiled by having two screens.

In any case no matter how you work, I agree, that 30" display would be
lovely. :-)

Last year I saw a demo machine with two of them... At the time you could buy the screens but the video cards weren't in stock yet (the one in the demo machine was a pre-production sample, the only one in the country).
