Sorry, I know this is off topic, but I'm curious. How does being able to
move windows between displays create visual strain? On both my work and
home dual-head machines I don't see any difference in how applications
are displayed between xinerama, non-xinerama dual-head or just plain
single head. I don't see any visual strain inducing problems at all.
The one exception to this had to do with a bug which used to exist in X
that caused OpenOffice to put too much space between characters, this
has been fixed, however.
