Two small utils today. One to help with multi screen set ups the other to suppress screen savers, ideal in a corporate set-up up where you might not be able to disable the screen saver.
Screen savers are fine, and many corporates lock their laptops to run these for security and marketing reasons. There are times where you may not want this can the corporate lock down prevent you disabling the screen saver. Enter Caffeine, when loaded it sends a key press to Windows so you don't have to. Now you can run presentations, watch movies or on-line video, or monitor VPNs without having to touch your laptop! Excellent reliable utility. I load it only when I need it but it is a great time saver.
I'm a big fan of large screens and make the most of your screen real estate. While some folk like Ultramon this is quite a rich product.
I like multi monitor taskbar this adds a button to all application windows allowing one click push to other screen(s).
It also adds a pseudo task bar to all monitors.
Both apps are small clean and can be installed even if you do not have admin rights.
