Do you run dual monitors? If so, how do you have them setup?

I got a 24" and a 19" next to it. Its pretty cool to have. I sit facing the 24" more and usually use the 19" for things like winamp, trillian and other windows I just want to leave open.

A couple 20" LCDs, I sit slightly to the left of center and use the left one mostly with smaller windows / winamp / IM on the right one.

Any wider than this and I'd have to start moving my neck =

EDIT: my roommate used to run OSX from his G5 on one 20" with XP running on his second 20". I forget the name, but he had a program that allowed him to move his mouse between the monitors as if they were the same computer. He got sick of it though as he got sick of not being able to really drag anything across or use the space effectively.

EDIT2: Gave me a reason to clean off my Desk

Nice, thanks! Why'd you cut off the component rack on the right?

At my last job I had a laptop and a flat panel. Had the laptop on the desk opene dup and the flat panel behind it on a stand so had one monitor above the other. Worked out well.

19" LCD in front, 17" CRT to the left. I mostly use the CRT for TV.

I have mine side by side by side. 1800FP - 2005FPW - 1800FP. Pretty big desk . The screen resolutions match up pretty well. 1024 vs 1050.

I have my secondary off to the LEFT of my primary. I'm the only person I've ever known to do that. Reason being is that I always grew up with the tower on the right, and putting it anywhere else just feels awkward to me - so the other monitor has to go left. And to further confound things, there's a THIRD monitor using a dumb KVM as an input switch - it either pulls a third video feed from my secondary video card in this system, or from my laptop's docking station, or from a third cable kind of dangling there doing nothing.
