Dual-monitor Workspace

by Jason Bean on April 11th, 2007

I’ve been thankful lately to be working from multiple monitors at home and at the office. One little snag I’m experiencing though with getting work done is that I frequently find myself moving to the bottom of the secondary monitor’s screen to switch to another application, or open a new application.

The problem is that the Start Menu and task bar is located at the bottom of the other screen. It would be nice if the task bar could duplicate itself on both screens if you wanted it to function that way.

Anyone else think that would be helpful?
