Oh it's definitely good stuff, no doubt. I play GW on my 19' 16:10 and look at the wiki on my 19' 4:3. Only problem is that GW (along with every other game) must be in windowed mode in order to go between monitors on the fly.

Yeah I use a 17" as gw machine and 15" for irc/forum/downloads/surfing/wiki/ventrilo. You have to use windowed mode though.
