Many, if not most, professional Mac users prefer a multiple monitor setup. Sometimes these setups extend to 3 or 4 monitors. In this scenario it can be handy to have two separate displays, each with a mirror in another room. Or perhaps an audio professional may use 3 separate displays in a recording studio, with a mirror of your main monitor for external viewing/operation in the recording booth.
This all sounds great, but achieving this kind of setup can be a little tricky in OS X, Apple don't exactly make it clear that this option is even available.
Don't worry though, this option is available and below is a step by step guide on how to do it.

To achieve a monitor set up like the one above, may seem impossible at first, but it's actually really simple, Apple just don't tell you how to do it. All you need to do is hold the ‘Alt' key on your keyboard and then drag one of your secondary monitors onto your main monitor (your main monitor is identifiable by the menu bar on the top of the screen). By using the ‘Alt' key, we can now mirror specific monitors. In the set up above we have 3 separate independent displays and one monitor that mirrors the main monitor.
