New Dual Monitor Setup - Different (pic) - GoFuckYourself.com

chri$tian · 01-21-2005, 05:18 PM

So I have had 2 screens for years now (even 3 for a few months, but it was too bright, lol) but today I tried somthing different.... Rotating them 90 degrees and putting them vertical.... So far I like and it save a tons of desc space...and allows me more room to see people when they sit on the other side of it too.

Sorry about the camera phone pic, only one that i had today.

vickyQ · 01-21-2005, 05:39 PM

hmm... being able to see more into the sides has always been more needed to me. I think I'd not get used to your setup.

Silent_Thunder · 01-21-2005, 05:39 PM

Looks strange

But I like creative thinking!

Tuga · 01-21-2005, 05:41 PM

Wow that's cool, look at my setup here http://www.gofuckyourself.com/showthread.php?t=420243 . I do get buried behind the monitors.

Wiggles · 01-21-2005, 05:46 PM

thats a neat setup, don't think i'd be able to do it.

Main reason was not to get burried behgind them (actually be able to see our porn stars when the come in and sit at my desk, lol), and the resloution is set to 1024x1280, so I have room the the left and right too..

tony286 · 01-21-2005, 05:52 PM

clickclickclick · 01-21-2005, 05:57 PM

Dalai lama · 01-21-2005, 06:00 PM

I love my dual monitor

pxxx · 01-21-2005, 06:00 PM

That is a nice setup.

emthree · 01-21-2005, 07:10 PM

I could never handle that. Even with 3LCDS.

d00t · 01-21-2005, 07:17 PM

nice moniters... what are they?

Vitasoy · 01-21-2005, 07:38 PM

Now that's different... my monitors couldn't do it, even if I wanted to.

wargames · 01-21-2005, 07:39 PM

Looks cool

Jace · 01-21-2005, 07:40 PM

i couldn't do it......i can already tell by the amount of space on the desktop that working in premiere or multitasking would be a bitch

Alex · 01-21-2005, 07:42 PM

I have a 19inch LCD as my main one and a 21inch flat sony CRT in the corner.

Im not a big enough for player for dual LCDs

I just bought 2 new 19" Samsung LCDs to take back to Hawaii, I had to pack them both in the same box that was for one of them so I could take them on the plane as carryon with me tomorrow morning. I hope they don't get fucked up.

Matt_WildCash · 01-21-2005, 08:40 PM

Double monitors kicks ass. But your new setup isn't going to be so good for seeing what your surfers are going to really see when they visit your site.

DamnGoodRatio · 01-21-2005, 10:53 PM

I have a 19" CRT for work. I like the colors and viewing angle. I use a 17" LCD, now rotated just like yours, for traffic monitoring, IM window and the tools in PShop. Anyone not using two monitors should imediately get a second one. Even pick up a cheapie at goodwill to test the concept and see if you like it. I promise you will.

brizzad · 01-21-2005, 10:55 PM

that shit is whack sergeant

goBigtime · 01-21-2005, 10:56 PM

I like the monitor mounts from www.ergotron.com

You can get them way cheaper than they are on the Ergotron site by going to pricegrabber.com. Sometimes people on ebay sell the dual monitor versions pretty cheap as well.

Great stands and highly configureable

UniversalPassLorence · 01-21-2005, 11:03 PM

That's pretty creative. I need to get me duel monitors.

PHPdude · 01-22-2005, 01:33 AM

After one month of my ergotron collecting dusts, I decided to setup my two 17" monitors on it and it looks really nice. I'm crossing my fingers my monitors don't fall off the stand....
