Hey guys,

My challenge is this, i challenge anyone to beat my ridiculous monitor setup that i have at home. Im running 2 30” Widscreen lcd monitors side by side in dualview. Here is a screenshot of how stupidly huge it is. look at all the software im running. haha.

It cost a lot of money for the monitors but its worth it films and games are awesome and work is so much easier because i have so much space.

I want this desktop too. I’m currently working in a 17 crt and I have a feeling that GameBoy has bigger screen than mine.

Why would you want such a big setup? I ran 2 22’s for a while and found that it was actually worse than just using one monitor and switching apps. For me, the time it took to switch between apps was shorter than the time it took to rotate my chair and look at the other screen.

I’m running dual 19’s at work and love it! At home I have a 22 inch widescreen (Left) and a 19 inch standard (right) but I just lost the right monitor, I dont kno if my video card crapped out but I am stuck with one monitor and its driving me crazy!

One of those things where you never see yourself needing a second screen until you get used to working with it. I feel like half my brain is missing. Having to minimize and maximize all day long is a pain in the ass.
