Oh, you'd better believe it. If you've got the desk real estate, they're
certainly worth it -- I find it phenomenally useful, particularly to
compare browser window <--> source code.
Basically, I have one window (full colour) running:
- IE
- Mozilla
- Terminal Services/VNC
- etc
With the other, which alas is only 256 colours, running stuff that
doesn't really need to look that good:
- Outlook
- Textpad
- Explorer windows
Luckily for me, that breakdown works not only because of the colour
depth divide, but also because it's kind of how I logically break down
my work. I need to run Terminal Services at the same time as email, say,
and Textpad at the same time as Mozilla, but rarely do I need Outlook
and Textpad, for example, at the same time.
