ITT: People making me real jelly

Haha well that's an obvious one, I mean is there any other advantage other than that? :seriously:

you can extend ur desktop to both displays... kinda handy when u have multiple documents open at the same time
(and i also dont wanna throw out my old monitor)

The advantage is:
a) it's super, super easy to setup, and pretty cheap nowadays
and b) it's just more usable. You don't need to alt-tab between programs, since you always have two windows visible.

Posting my work setup as I spend more time here. At home I tend to sit on the couch with my laptop.

I have my development environment up showing the advantage of dual 24" screens. I can look at 2 classes on the right, and on the left switch between the solution/find/properties/... and beside it errors/source control/find results/call stack/watch window/...

hes running 3 dell 2410's which is about 600 a piece. me gusta

That's crazy! I have the 2420, picked them up on sale for $210 each. I tried them in landscape and they are just too tall, found myself looking up/down too much. That is pretty badass though.

He also forgot bezel correction :troll:

My current setup. Don't mind the shitty desk and surroundings, have to live in a rental house with limited space till new one's built. Hard life.

you are probably thinking of another 2420..because the one's in those pic are the U2410 I believe..which are 8-bit S-IPS panels...the lowest price they ever dropped to was 400ish

I agree it's awkward putting tri-monitor setup in landscape unless you use it purely for gaming (excluding racing sims)

U2410 vs ST2420. I would have liked the IPS panel, yet was not worth triple the cost.

oops i meant it's awkward in potrait mode IMO

well speak of the devil

its on sale for 450. original price of 600. im very tempted. i want to use it to do web dev work...dont know if i can justify the price of it. IPS 1900 x 1200 is sweet though

taylors ST2420 is also on sale here for 170

2x Dell U2311
1x Samsung 46" 1080p tv

side monitors are setted up as portrait since i need it to view tabs and documents for work

You sit in front of a 46" screen? :seriously:

Ya lol, how about you?

yep have been for the past 3 years or so
it sounds and looks ridiculous, but once you see it in real life and try it for yourself (like many of my friends) it works really well

^doesn't that hurt your eyes or something? I tried with my 40", couldn't handle it for more than 2 hours at a time.

it doesnt hurt my eyes at all, and my eyesight hasnt worsen in the past 5 years and I've moved from 32" - 46" within that span
