I was wondering how many of you work on two screens, or have you ever tried working with two screen. I use two screens when I'm learning something from a Video, and take notes on the other screen. Also I use it alot in webdesign, copying information or looking for pictures. Anybody Else uses two screens, and find it effective in some way?
I've had dual screens for about 2 years now dunno how i lived without em, the extra space is great, mainly like to use it for watching films or tv episodes etc on one screen while browsing web on the other or MSN, IRC, all chat stuff on one side and something else on the other its good having the extra space
Have been using dual, and sometimes even triple monitor setups for several years now. It's great being able to do different things on each screen, be it webdesign or gaming, or just watching a movie and relaxing.
Are there graphic cards that handle 3 screens???!!??! Please give me a link or the name of the graphic card.. I must buy it!
At home - I use two LCD's for better performance (when I can get to the primary computer). This one which I'm using usually is with only one At work - I have whole system and three screens - one for the primary computer and two for the other four PC I have to work with (some calculations). I even have a different keyboard which is for switching between the different computers, making one computer with dual screen, and giving the second keyboard to assign to specific PC. It’s very weird and I still can get used to that.
I used to, but I found it not worth it after a while. I guess I don't really need the desktop space as much as I need the "real" desk top space. It's kinda cramped in my work area.
Matrox TripleHead2Go is quite nice. Failing that you can always have 2 or even more 3d/video cards in your PC, so 3 screens is nothing really
Yep, I got duel 19" lcds, and I'm waiting for delivery of a lovely 22" widescreen for the second pc with media centre.....v. v. excited!! DD
I work with two screens and tabbed browser pages. Makes it much easier to switch back and forth for information.
yes.. lol if i could afford to i'd have 3 monitors sorta like... [] [][] triangle kinda arangement top one for films and others for usual stuff hehe would be so cool also if i could get a screen saver like they had on the film Swordfish now that would OWN hehe but first things first gotta get rid of gfx card i got and get a newer one this ones crap (ATI 9600XT)
yeah but if your screens arnt in a row like [][][] i cant see as ya could do it very easily if ya had [] [][] its gonna be difficult to position the monitors just right hehe
I love working with dual screens... it makes work so much easyer for me, and I get the job done so much faster... i hook another screen up with my laptop... if anyone needs help doing that with there laptop, let me know.
Very true Although for the moment I'm not using dual anymore because I got my old computer running again. But I'm thinking of puting a 3 monitor on my desk so I can use my 2 TFT monitors (19" widescreen and 15" on my comuter, and a 15" CRT on my old).
