I haven't tried two distinct screens, so I can't directly compare them. I find the moving of the mouse from one screen to the other to be intuitive and natural for me, but in reality, I rarely use the mouse anymore. I probably don't need to use xinerama except that it easily flows with my usage of wmii. For example, in wmii to move a window into a column on the right of your "screen" you use Alt-shift-l. I have my wmii set up to split the column at 50%. Since my screens are the same size, that puts the split right at the edge of the monitors. I always have more than one window open so I get two screens each with a full screen window in it. It just naturally works well for me. A
