How many screens you running?

I've got 2 monitors in addition to my laptop screen. Anyone working with more like some kinda Wall Street big brain?


Also heard about this thing called a Xebec that has flip out screens for your laptop to make it a tri-screen, but I haven't tried it yet.


How many?

My company provided those massive Samsung curved monitors, so I use one of those, but it seems like I have 5. It is too big

haha yeah idk what I would do with a screen that big.  To me, it's less about how big the screen is, and more about having multiple screens to separate things out.

yeah on the road or on plane rides, could be a game changer.  I'll have to read some reviews on it before I make the leap.  Of course I'm not traveling too much right now so I can't see the value just yet.

I have a video endpoint that I use as an extra monitor. It's honestly been the best thing working from home. Makes me feel professional.

It's a desk pro - Cisco device. Big screen with a camera on it. I use it for video calls, as a monitor, and as a whiteboard!

My ideal setup would be to have 2 external monitors + laptop screen.

Laptop in the middle on a riser. Monitor on the right, set up vertically. Monitor on the left, set up horizontally.

What's the lift of having one be vertical?  Haven't seen that before.

Is it bad that I feel comfortable with only one? I guess with time I might need more.

1 external monitor. Focus on one client at a time.

Don't think anyone is saying we're financial analysts.  I like having email on one, SF on another, maybe a deck on working on the third.  Just easier than minimizing and maximizing screens all the time if I need to look at 2 or 3 things while working on a task.
