2x 21" 1080p (16:9) LG LEDs - no VESA bracket support ;(
I need to get myself another set of monitors, *with* VESA brackets, so that I can turn one of them sideways, ie, have a higher rather than wider display for when I read code/config files/debug output etc.
One of the main fun parts of multiple monitors, is the video/movie/series playing on the offset screen while I work on the center/main screen. Do it on laptop too.
My biggest pain with the wider/cinematic screens, is that you loose a helluva lot of code/debug/reading/etc. area once you've added in the menu/status/etc. bar off the app and the OS (either Windows or MacOSX, but Windows you can "auto-hide" it, but not the topbar in MacOSX), so then I want my screens turned 90/270degrees. The problem then with the 21:9 (and also the bigger 16:9) is that they become just too high. I already feel the 23" monitors are too big... need to be too far away to comfortably read/view/etc. I quite liked the 17" 4:3 1280x1024 monitor and pixel/DPI size.
*If* I'm getting a third display in my normal setup, it'll definitely be a setup with that being the centerpiece turned sideways, ie. setup like: = || =
