Agreed here.  Dual monitors are just too useful for this kind of work.  Hell, sometimes I find myself wanting a third monitor, and I don't even do anything all that complex. I just wish sometimes that I could place the schematic on one, PCB on another as now, and put things like a terminal to run gsch2pcb and such, tool/library dialogs, etc. on the third.

Trying to cram all that into one screen is just.... stifling.
