At my last job, I had two monitors:
[1] [2]
But I arranged them like this in the desktop space:
[1]
[2]
so that #1 (my primary) could keep the infinite right edge (so I could slam the mouse to the top-right corner to close a maximized window). This worked out really well, and it was always funny to see other people trying to figure out why moving the mouse to the right didn't make the cursor go to monitor #2

Those things are massive. How do you use two? I'd hurt my neck or something from all the turning :P
I'm definitely getting one of those soon though. Just waiting for the new revision (maybe out already...) and a nice sale. Should be great for multi-tasking, videos and next-gen consoles.

I have a corner desk, so they are slightly angled in towards each other like the nose of an aeroplane. It's like having one monitor for each eyeball.

I've got a 6x14" CRT for Visual Studio 2005 Team Suite Edition!

I've got dual 24" 2405s at work. My left screen is rotated 90 degress, so I type in source code on the left portrait screen, and run other applications on the right lanscape screen. I've found this is a great setup. Pity nVidia drivers for Vista don't support this yet though as it's been the main thing holding me back from using Vista RC2. Trying to write code at home on a 19" screen feels like I'm trying to use a computer through a letter box.

Smaller than 17" - does it onclude PDA screens... I spend (games ) most of the time in it

Thats what I would have added to the poll.
"We trained hard, but it seemed that every time we were beginning to form up into teams we would be reorganised. I was to learn later in life that we tend to meet any new situation by reorganising: and a wonderful method it can be for creating the illusion of progress, while producing confusion, inefficiency and demoralisation."

I have 2x20" LCD, at home, running at 1600x1200
Currently I spend all my time at a client, where I have a single 19" CRT, for C++ coding

Which ones?
I'm searching info about the Samsung Syncmaster 204B[^] and its competitors.

I have 2x 204B's and I love them, great picture, bright, swivel base is cool and 16x12 resolution is great.

hehe indeed.
Pretty weird being in the boardroom with 5 other 50" plasmas and the room next door with another 5. Must have cost the company a small fortune. Hopefully they won't miss one...

Borrow one from the boardroom you're not in... That way they won't suspect you

It's plasma, so it's probably "from your burnt, charred fingers"

That's what I'm missing from the poll, dual screen setups. I use dual 15" LCD screens at 1024x768. But I really want something bigger like 17" or higher.

Pretty much the same here...except one is widescreen (1440x900) and the other "normal" (1280x1024).
