Dual screen shots look weird on the left because the screens are different shapes and resolutions. My extra monitor is on the left is 19" at 1400x900 and the laptop screen is 15" on the right at 1680x1050.
The screen below is my current one. The program on the far right of my screen is Conky, a very lightweight and customizable system monitor program that melds with the desktop. The terminal has Folding@Home running, and the other program near it is BOINC. The program at the top center of the right screen is the Songbird music player playing Amon Amarth.
These two below have a terminal fullscreened over the right screen and the circles and other stuff on the desktop on the right are screenlets that actively change, showing system stats, a calendar, and the weather. The laptop image is an image of my laptop model and those lines point each system monitor screenlet to the actual physical location of the device on my laptop.
I'm running Linux Mint 8 Helena currently. I've been using Mint for nearly two years on my laptop about 99% of the time, although I still dualboot the copy of Vista that it came with to play STALKER and the StarCraft 2 Beta. But for day-to-day use, you couldn't pay me enough to go back to Windows or use my Mom's Mac.
