This is why I've fought against 2 monitors here. It was clear that the people asking for them had no need for them and were the usual "my desk should be a trophy case of IT prizes because I'm so special." I'd be more flexible if everyone were to get one, but management doesn't want the expense. Its just incredible how childish people in an office setting act sometimes. I work in a building with other organizations like my own and have a close relationship with the IT department of one group that has dual monitors for everyone. Sadly, according to their IT guys, the second monitor becomes a dedicated Facebook terminal. So instead, we standardized on 24" monitors that allow side by side windowing. I feel like that's the best solution for us. Widescreen monitors should be used in this way.
