I donot understand your point. As a SW engineer who focuses on UI design and implementation, my desk has three screens. One screen dedicated to execution, one dedicated to code, and one dedicated to spreadsheets or design documents, etc.

My Fitts's law analysis happens on a target platform and not my development system.

Could you elaborate?

The problem with multiple monitors is that it becomes harder to acquire UI elements placed at the corners. Like for example the "Close" button, "Start" button, "Show Desktop" button, scroll bars etc.

For me, this is what shortcuts are for. The start button on my keyboard is faster than mouse targeting.
