(Business people) speaking a language familiar and dear to them. Its portentous nouns and verbs invest ordinary events with high adventure; executives walk among toner cartridges, caparisoned like knights. We should tolerate them - every person of spirit wants to ride a white horse. -William Strunk Jr. (The Elements of Style)
Yeah but they’re both 1080 Acers
Meh, for basic tasking it’s better than a single one
Tbh, two monitors don’t help me at all. I set up a cool home office during covid with all upgrades I could think of. Hardly ever used the second monitor. I even had difficulties filling my laptop screen with meaningful additional content. Also, neck pain of constantly working with a turned head is real.
The most important upgrade IMHO is a good chair, followed by a USB-C docking station and maybe a robotic arm for the display to adjust height and free some space on the desk
Depends heavily on what exactly you’re doing.
The chair, absolutely. But I’ll take the second monitor over a docking station any day (what are you even using it for? Connecting a laptop?).
2 monitors, full size keyboard with the numpad, comfortable mouse, and no interruptions.
100% on the chair, I’m waiting for work to pick back up and that’ll probably be my first good purchase cause my old piece of crap makes sitting at my computer for the minimal hours I do terrible.
But I live by my multiple monitors. When I’m sorting through receipts, doing payroll, data entry, anything, not having to alt-tab is a godsend. I grabbed 2 28" monitors, a keyboard/mouse, and a laptop dock, and it completely changed my workflow from my 14" laptop screen that I just plug my laptop in and close the lid. I need the laptop for portability, but having my landing setup makes all of my mundane office work so much easier.
