+<PRE>it most definitely is possible and really quite easy with nvidia dual
+monitor cards and nvidia-settings. It's also very easy with a laptop
+running two screens, using krandrtray. In fact with the latter it's
+easier than nvidia-settings sometimes.
+
+As far as useful purpose, blimey, when you're writing software, it's so
+nice to have compiler on one window and schematic on another; for laying
+out PCBs, having schematic one screen, PCB on the other; when writing
+Linux apps with Qt, having creator in one window and designer in
+another; for general surfing having Firefox on one, Thunderbird on
+another etc etc. I've got two 24&quot; 1920x1080 screens and it makes my
+working day *so* much easier.
+
+Go for it, once you've tried it, you'll wonder how you managed without!
