One thing that's particularly nice about Mac multi-monitor support is how
freakin' easy it is to set up. I've been using an external monitor on my
PowerBook 520 (doesn't support linux... :(...) for several years, and the
interface for the Monitors control panel still blows me away. I'm curious
how difficult it is to implement something similiar in Linux.
