I've got a corner desk setup. Comp number one is in the center with the two big monitors, Comp number 2 is off to the side with a 21 inch. Comp 2 and three share that monitor with a KVM switch (keyboard, Video, Mouse). I built a custom keyboard drawr for that one so the drawer itself can be moved over and rotated within a 3 foot range so I can adjust it next to myself, or over to the side if someone else is driving. The tv is also mounted up above the whole setup so I can switch it to an overhead monitor for spectators. input 1 is main box, input 2 is secondairy, input 3 is dvd player, etc.

It works

My desk is big enough that I can keep my desktop PC on the right with a laptop next to it on the left. Primary char on the desktop, lesser char on laptop. I don't macro anything either; just control each character independently with one hand.

I use my desktop on a desk . I turn my chair to the right and use a footstool with my portable PC on my lap. Being left handed, I can use the mouse on the desktop unit easily.

I normally play my main shaman on the desktop and use the laptop for my monk. I also set up hot keys so that I can easily target my two box and follow it.

Hope that helps.

I pushed two tables together in an L-shape in the corner of the room, with a swivel chair right in the middle of the L. Two desktops on the one table, a third and fourth on the other, neatly arranged in as close to a circle as could be managed. The left most is webs sites (guild, alla, etc), the other 3 have my three accounts. when I am exploring a totally new zone, or grinding exp in a favorite spot, I can 1, 2 or 3 box depending on requirements, and at no time is any one monitor out of my peripheral vision. With peripehral awareness and sound queues, this works very well for me. That and a lot of tightly programmed hot keys :)
