If you don't think of a monitor as being the entire computer (maybe they 
should be iMacs?), 2 monitors connected could just be a KVM switch.

Also, that "network monitor" applet looks similar so it then it gets confusing 
for new users.  They delete the notification area and nm-applet disappears.  
Then they try to add it back with "network monitor applet" and can't figure out 
why it doesn't show networks anymore.  I'm sure you've seen this in #ubuntu 
before.
