The issue forn me is not only WHAT I need to work, but HOW I work.
I'm used to using a 2 screen system, with Big (or Bigger) screens. I like to put three windows up on one (email, chat and usually a remote desktop view) and then cycle between 5 or so on the other, usually with 2-3 showing at a time. This makes it easier to view multiple references when I'm coding, or multiple sources when I'm running data integrity checks or doing ETL work.
Am I missing an easy fix here? I can't get more than one 'metro' app on a screen at a time except for that ridiculous side view, and I can't seem to get two 'desktop' views at the same time on two screens ...
I feel like the OS is taking control of my screen real estate, and I thought that kind of thinking went away about the same time the Y2K panic did.
