anyone here not using a dual display setup yet?

[zanejohnson]

best thing ever.... i cant stand using a single display anymore, PC's are powerful enough now to need more than one display, or a giant high res display at least, because multi-tasking is so much more than it used to be.

I'm happy with my 22" widescreen.

Dual monitors is the only way to go.

I only use my laptop's screen. I could get a monitor to go with it, but I'd rather spend my money on other things.

My PC is connected to a 24" desktop monitor and a 42" HDTV. I don't run dual-display, but running Crysis at 1080P with all graphics options on Ultra High on a 42" screen is just about the prettiest thing you'll find in gaming today.

very happy with my dual+1 setup at home and triple at work.

Laptop for me

you should be posting your pc gear in FS/FT to pay for your legal fees.

4 monitors and a laptop for work.....and I still don't have enough real-estate.

yeah that would be a sweet setup... i consider 24"+ wide screen pretty much as good as two smaller 4:3 displays...

i run 2 19" 4:3's, it's nice, but i would love a pair of nice 22" widescreens, that would be a sweet setup.

my stuff is old..not worth much... and i would die without a PC... even though i cant even use my decent PC right now until i get a replacement vid card from EVGA..

im posting on an overclocked thorton AthlonXP with the bridge mod to enable all 512KB of cache...running at 2GHz... it's decent in win2k pro...

I have two at home, two at work, even my wife has two. If only there was a dual-screen laptop. :Q

It's the .1 that really makes the setup work. Anyone not running a monitor dedicated to the lowest frequencies humans can see (right down into infrared) is really missing out.

and if they're not powered monitors, they are useless.

I'm using a 19'' widescreen LCD as the primary display, and a 32'' Samsung LCD TV as a secondary one.

 

[IHateMyJob2004]

Having used 4:3 and wide screen monitors at work in dual monitor setups I have to say that dual 4:3 ratio monitors are the way to go. The only utility widescreen monitors serve is for waching movies. And quite frankly, unless you are in college or live with your parents, there is no reason to go dual widescreen.

If I did do a 3 monitor setup though, it would probably be two 4:3s and 1 widescreen. Probably 21" 4:3 monitors that do atleast 1600x1200.

single screen on my laptop in my living room, but I've got a 22" + 19" on my desktop... dual 19" monitors at work.
