What do you guys prefer?
There's really a limit how big the screen can be and still be usable, depending on the desk depth. So one might be better off with two or more in a row. It seems like a lot of gamers and movie buffs use HDTVs as computer screens, which is perfect for that use, but very poor for things like photography, or any application that takes up a lot of screen real estate (resolution being the key). Multi display rigs are pretty common in shipping, where you have loading software, technical manuals, control consoles, alarm systems, CCTV, etc. all in a row. When I got my LaCie photon20vision it was considered a big screen, but lately I've been thinking to myself that if I ever see another matching photon20vision and it's not too expensive I'll buy it. As an added bonus it would be easier to focus on the job if one screen is dedicated to that and another is dedicated to browsing, email, etc.
