You could have statsremote or some kind of server health monitor running on the second screen, so it's always visible. I'm just about to move to dual head myself.

You were too ahead of your time back then. :winkwink:

The little black box to the left of the amplifier is a Squeezebox. I did write a plugin to display current daily revenue on that (I always wanted something like that, ever since I was a kid), but I've changed affiliate partners so many times I gave up writing the scrapers to do it :)

Quite the opposite. If you were doing things right, you'd want as many monitors and computers as possible in both your office and home to increase your productivity and make even more money :winkwink:

I see lots of pics here of people with big ass screens running browser windows in fullscreen. That's about the biggest waste of desktop real estate I've ever seen. No wonder most need 2-4 monitors! See marklondon's post above, the best example of intelligent use of monitor space.

Here's my setup - 23" 1920x1200 overlooking the river in central London:

And I really don't need a second monitor. I have a wall:

Morgan. Tell me, is the volcano worth it? I've been hitting the pipe for a while and I dig the volcano adverts but I need to know:
does it EVER smell at any point in the procedure?
how often do you need to replace parts?
does it really kick ass?

my optimal setup was 14 workstations 3 monitors, 2 dual 21" NECs, and a 21" SUN

I use a 12 foot wide screen with a DaLite Glass bead screen/4000 lumen projector 20 feet away from me - do I qualify?

I have my desktop and laptop side by side, sharing mouse and keyboard with synergy...

But honestly I often feel that it's making me LESS productive rather than more...

Multiplicity is like synergy but not free?

I have one monitor, wide screen, and that's fine. I also have a TV to my left, and on my right is a touchscreen used only for email. That's more than enough.

Using at least 2 monitors has seriously increased my productivity.

The best part about this thread is that all of the specs that people used to consider hardcore are now standard.

Now That's a Setup

Re Brad Gosse

I figured a 27" iMac would do it all, but that is a great set up.

3. A 22 inch wide in the middle and two 15 inch on each side for email, testing, hulu, etc. Perfect for me.
