Mark: understood. I have so many things going at any given time to cross reference (navicat for databases, sftp client, multiple instances of ssh, batches, code, spreadsheets, yada yada yada). I used to have to shuffle skype windows and other business related correspondence, like email, back and forth as needed, or monimized. Now i just leave all of those types of apps opened on the upper 4th monitor and never need to close, minimize, or hardly even need to ever resize anything I use during the day.
But I understand what you mean about productivity. Each person's setup has to work for the tasks they are doing, and what makes it comfortable to work with.
One HUGE downside with a multi-monitor environment is that if one goes bad a year later, a replacement monitor -- even the same model, if available -- often requires a boatload of calibration / tweaking to make it look the same as the others.
Regardless, congrats on the purchase. I'll be looking forward to hearing how you like a single large monitor, and that model in particular.
