A side note. When you get one of those very high aspect films, presented in something stupid like 10:3 ... you can manually resize the movie player window so it spans both monitors and display it at much close to it's actual aspect. Of course it looks **** because of the bezels and the off centre angles. |

Home and work at home I have worked over four years with a single 43" Since half a year I have dual USBC monitor setup 43" and 27" Work: two 24" monitors and if wanted third laptop screen. I prefer multiple monitors since I can put MSTeams and Outlook in one monitor. There the "social" interrupt occur. The 43" for coding is wonderfull to have a better code overview but as stated earlier I wouldgo for a smaller screen next time. The dual 24" at work I think are a bit too small, what I really like is when I have to compare code which has long lines, at that moment I extend the Bcompare window over both monitors so left monitor shows previous code and right monitor the changed code. That is for me a really good experience. |

I use lithium rechargable batteries in my mice and when they go, there is no warning. 1.5V...1.5V 0.0V. So I get paranoid and keep thinking the mouse is dead, but then I catch it out of the corner of my eye. I have increased its size and when I remember I use inverse contrast on it. I have no resorted to googly-eyes yet! |

I am keeping 1 x 34" Ultrawide. Just upgrading one to a 43" 16:9. I think two browsers is perfectly useful side of by side. |
