PC multimonitor support allows this... you can drag freely between the monitors, but when you maximize a window, it only maximizes to the monitor the window was occupying. The mouse cursor moves from one display to the other when you drag it past the display's edge.
The main weakness with the setup is the fact that you have to select a "primary" monitor... all of your dialog boxes will appear on this monitor, and it is the only monitor which will support overlay, so you can't play DVDs and stuff on secondary monitors. I like to throw a DVD on my side display sometimes while I work at home, but that means I have to set the side monitor as the primary, so all of my dialogs and stuff appear over there. I think some video drivers force the dialogs to appear on the same monitor as the program which spawned them, but mine doesn't.
Apple does have some damn nice flatpanel displays, though.
