Got 2x 22" Samsung - great monitors - was debating to upgrade to duel 24's but after really thinking about it i figured it would give me more a of a headache vs how much i actually care about the extra screen real estate. I would never go beyond duel 22 for myself that is.
Get a 24" screen and use your 21" as your secondary side monitor.
Are two monitors better than one? Of course they are. Studies have shown that there is up to a 50% increase in productivity with two screens. The more real estate you have the better. More windows, more drag and drop, more everything.
Think of it as a prison cell with a bigger window.
two monitors to a computer, two computers, also have a 13" macbook pro which is currently the primary computer...
i found that three monitors is not any better than two, but two monitors on two computers is a lot better...also two monitors are a million times better than 1, I go crazy trying to work on one monitor now...the only bad thing about multiple computers is that its kinda a pain to have to swap files and you cannot copy and paste whats on one screen to the other computer although sometimes i still try not thinking...other than that two computers is great...can do a lot more multitasking and never overload one computer...

I've got 2 22"s set up to my PC, and a 24" connected to my macbook pro so 4 total. Ideally I'd have everything running on the mac but the matrox triple head 2 go adapter I got just doesn't work with new macbooks. But I just hooked up synergykm which allows you to use your mouse and keyboard on both mac and PC at the same time.
