I use a laptop and desktop simultaneously. Very useful. At the risk of straying too far from Legacy topics, do the users of two desktop screens use only 1 keyboard? Presumably so. I'm not clear how one sets up the computer to accomodate one keyboard and two screens. Or, how Legacy is seen on

Yay to this. I couldn't live without dual monitors, since about 10 minutes after I got the second. Although, having a widescreen with two programs open side-by-side might be similarly good. - JL JLog - simple computer technology for genealogists http://www.jgen.ws/jlog CE WOOD wrote:
