Yep, I'm going to Slashdot Hell for this. Windows 3.1 as my OS on a 386, Balmer as my boss, and no stock options to compensate...
Could have been worse, you could have said that Linux isn't ready for the desktop.

I have dual 19" monitors but have three desktops setup using Dexpot. One is a finance desktop for excel, banking and other finance apps. Next is a development desktop for IDE, web development and database management. Finally, I have a general desktop for email, web browsing and anything else.
All three desktops use both monitors. It helps to keep common groups of applications in separate workspaces. So, multiple monitors and virtual desktops are not mutually exclusive!
500-in-1 Electronics Kits? 125
Oneamp asks: "I'm interested in a '500-in-one' type electronics kit. Amazon lists a few, but I've seen some user reviews that maybe they are not all they're cracked up to be. Most of the complaints seem to be of the 'Manual sucks' variety. Nevertheless, I'm sold on the idea. Can any of you, who have had actual experience with any of these kits, recommend a good one?"
Submission + - How to build a video wall
alphakappa writes: I am interested in building a video wall as a personal project using recycled old laptops so that I can make use of the display controllers already present. Is there free or cheap software that can extend the display on Windows and still be capable of showing different videos on different zones (like, say run a video in one zone while showing a powerpoint presentation in another one) What tools would slashdotters use?
