useful to have only one window visible at a time, most of the time.

I'm amazed at the number of people that use maximized windows, one application at a time. I have 2 1600x1200 displays, with 10-30 overlapping windows partially visible, and sometimes wish I had 3 displays, so I could see more windows at a time... but then I'd have to turn my head more, so maybe this is optimal. Two displays lets me get my autohidden taskbar in the vertical center, for quick access from either side.

I also have two monitors, I use goScreen for three virtual desktops (I'm stuck with XP -- which is to say MS), and each application I use is full-screen while I'm using it. I find windows that I'm not using at that moment a distraction.
