I once had a two-monitor setup, and I dind't like it. Way too much clutter and information overload on the desktop. Managing that wide screen real estate is cumbersome. The view angle is too wide. You never know where the focus is, etc.
I peronally would prefer just one display with really good resosution.

What a great productivity boost for a programmer! Yeah, copy-pasting is what we do all day long.

(FYI: vertical monitors are sold as rotatable widescreen monitors; Dell sells them for sure). But I have reverted to one widescreen monitor, and I like it--I like the focus.
