If i use a 2x2 i can jump to any other desktop immediately. If i'm using a 3x3 i tend to do primary work in the center one and can still jump to any of the other ones immediately (using arrows).

Makes my 1 desktop look pretty dang wimpy. Hey, not trying to sell product here, just payback since you and Chris were talking. Take a look at the calculator here: http://payback.ergotron.com. Payback can be in days or weeks, not necessarily months, no matter what kind of stand or display you're looking at. I use dual-display at work, but have to work the numbers for the homefront. This thing is helping me with the opportunity cost rationalization as well. : -) Eric, interesting discussion. Makes my 1 desktop look pretty dang wimpy.
