On this day:

When 30" is just not big enough...

I am a man who believes in moderation. Usually. There is one thing, however, that has made my life somewhat more enjoyable and that is getting a larger computer monitor. A 30" to be exact. Now this monitor by itself borders on embarrassingly large. But if you're already being ridiculous, why stop there?


Yep, that's right...three monitors. A 30" in the middle with two 19" monitors flanking in portrait mode. More than 4 feet of screen real estate. Have a word document, an excel spread sheet, iTunes, buddy list, and your internet browser open at the same time. Minimizing windows is overrated. Drag windows off to the side between monitors, have a photo open while talking to a friend, check google maps while your email is open, or just huddle next to the three monitors for warmth.

Multiple Displays are not just for the uber nerd anymore. Even the NYTimes reports a "productivity increase by up to 30% with a dual display." And who are we to argue with the NYTimes? Read more here.

Some more photos for your perusal:






Yes, that is 6 internet browser windows open at the same time.
