If you fullscreen mode any app, it will fucking blank out the rest of you screens....

I'm so over Mac...Used to be I was one of a few people with a macbook in any given lecture hall...Now...I don't feel so special...haha
When a fullscreen app is running (like a game), the other monitors will still display and not blank out.

I was on XP, and upgraded to Win 8. Both OS's do this. I thought this was normal... or it kind of defeats the purpose of having multiple screens...

I like to run my games and have MSN on the other monitor so I can see when/if someone msgs me.
