Multiple Monitors
What can you do with two screens?
TWO SCREENS can be used in a couple of different ways.
(a) two identical screens
(b) one big screen

Two identical screens are great if while you are using the computer, you want someone who is sitting or standing opposite you to be able to view the screen comfortably at the same time.

One big screen, also known as an extended desktop, is when you are using two monitors as if they are one. This is very helpful for those that would like to have a program always opened and visible, yet be doing work on other programs at the same time.

Personally, I have two monitors, set up as extended monitors, this way I always have Outlook opened on one screen, while I do all my other work on the other screen.

ON A DESKTOP you can set up multiple monitors, assuming your computer has the capabilities. Some computers are built to be able to handle two screens. However, many computers require the installation of an additional video card in order to facilitate the use of two monitors.

A LAPTOP will be able to add one monitor, most of the time without much work involved in the setup. 

Multiple screens enhance productivity, however once you upgrade to two screens it is very hard to downgrade to one screen.
