For website design, I regularly use dual monitors and like the ability to have code open on one screen and the resulting web page open in the other. If you haven’t tried out multiple monitors, I suggest connecting a second display to your computer and reaping the benefits of saved time and lessened application confusion.

I’ve dabbled with Linux in the past. The work-related experience I’ve had was in CentOS, which the company I worked for had used for the foundation for VMServer.

The primary reasons I’m considering Ubuntu are the fact that it’s simple to install, it is easy to get software for, and it is a more-friendly likeness of Debian.
