If you have winXP and an extra graphics card, you 
can setup two monitors that will split your desktop 
across their screens. 
It works well if you are editing code 
on one side and previewing on the other.

:In MX, the F10 shortcut takes you the code inspector only.  To work in
code
:while viewing the WSIWYG, you need to use the Code and Design view
(under View
:then Code and Design).  I was doing the F10 shortcut and having the
same
:pasting problems until I realize F10 does not have quite the same
function as
:it did in Dreamweaver 4.

I think this is a real loss, btw, and a disappointment in MX.  Unless
you have a huge monitor, as someone else observed, the screen is really
too cramped with all that "stuff" on it--being able to switch between
code and design so quickly is really nice.  I have a 19" monitor and I
feel it's not enough real estate for the way MX is designed.  If anyone
knows a way around this...I'd love to toggle, too.
