Everyone keeps saying this, but I think it's FUD. They've fixed the main gripe with Lion's full screen: not being able to full screen an app on the monitor of your choice (as opposed to the main monitor only). Why is the second monitor useless? I'm sure you can still drag app windows to it and interact with them. edit: You can drag child windows of the full-screened app to the second monitor. The whole point of the full-screen mode is to isolate the app and give it exclusive focus. For everything else, there's the zoom button.

> Why is the second monitor useless? I'm sure you can still drag app windows (as well as other apps) to it and interact with them. Uh, no. You can't. That's the gripe. Way to be dismissive when you don't even grok the complaint.

Well that's the real problem, you can't ... when you fullscreen an app the second monitor just displays a gray fabric background but you can't put apps, widgets, or anything else for that mater on it. It's a fail I wasn't expecting from Apple.
