As a user nouveau feels like it was created to be 'good enough' rather than
to lead.
It is because of the lack of support for multi-card and multi-monitor
systems that
I say this.
In fairness I see a lot of businesses using a 17 or a 19 inch LCD monitor -

someone is really missing the productivity increase that you can get from
more
screen real estate.

My system is set up with 20 desktops where I have 16 defined for different
tasks
and/or needs. This available space makes it easy to switch from one task to
another
without taking a lot of time to find the various bits needed to do the work.
