I have, but I do find it a bit of an organisational pain.  And some
things are far less than intuitive to use when their controls are on the
next screen.  I've also had to deal with using two computers side by
side, and that was slightly less painful for some things.  e.g. Web site
work, with editing on one, and checking on the other.

By the time you get around to playing with dual monitors, you might want
to consider if what you really want is one *HUGE* monitor with very high
resolution.
