Just a quick comment here...I have to agree completely.  I do not, have not and 
don't plan to use a MAC, BUT I saw a friend doing exactly this on his and I got 
really jelouse.  He used his new 21" as his main and his old 14(maybe 15) off 
to the side to hold all his alliases (shortcuts) and stuff of that nature.  I 
know a few people who have upgraded thier monitors recently (myself included) 
that have an extra one sitting around.
  Since WIN95 seems, to be mostly a copy of MAC's OS, maybe he will put this 
feature in a future version of WINDOWS.
