My new home office. Three 24inch IPS displays in portrait mode. Absolutely love it :)

Nice setup - but how do you live with those huge bezels? I've been wanting to do a multi-monitor setup but I would need extremely thing bezels. Also, portrait mode is indeed awesome

If I did a lot of work where I needed windows that spanned multiple monitors, the bezels would definitely annoy me. There are times when I use photoshop where it is quite frustrating. However, 99% of the time, I have 3 or more windows open. I use WinSplit Revolution to quickly resize and move any given window to a specific monitor and to either take up one 1 full monitor or half of one. I program in Eclipse most of the time and I typically have it spanning two monitors, but there's a good area to split it up near the bezel.

Nah... those are the original bezel protectors, there is a lot of dust around this place so I just prefer to leave them... behind that screen is also my ps3, wii and a PSU of 450 watts which is in charge of anything that requires energy chargers and the car stereo, plenty enough power with it. Also.. all of the cables also lay behind the screen.

Disclaimer: My desk is actually more cleaner...

Where can I get this beezel protectors. I want to cover 2 monitors and CPU getting dusted.

Seriously?

That's why is just a bit..., I only have to detach the usb hub in order to take the whole laptop, no cable mess (of course network cable and ace adapter too, but that's as far as it goes).

Didn't see this one, but thing is, those bezel protectors came with the TV, from factory, I just didn't remove them because vents were already uncovered.

A bit more organized...

How do you find the R.A.T? I bought it but it does my head in, the cursor is so damn crazy just moves on its own. Picky about surfaces and generally just wasted so much time on it just to get a mouse to work normally. I got the 7.

My RAT 5 works fine, it has problems with dark surfaces, but since I have it on a wooden one there is no problem. I have it connected to an USB 3.0 hub (USPeed 7 ports) and no problem with moving on its own, I however had a LACIE 4 ports usb 3.0 hub, each time that I removed a peripheral the mouse would act on its own, I think it's because the mouse de-synchronizes itself when a conflict occurs on another ports of the hubs, however it recovers more or less after a minute.

    • What browser do you prefer to use, and why?

      The current Statcoungter desktop numbers has Google Chrome increasing it's market share this past year and currently commanding 75% share. Everybody else is just making up the numbers with even MS Edge losing 3% this past year and has dipped just below 10% share which is staggering considering it's default on every Windows deviced purchased. If these numbers are correct that terrible Edge number is both devastating and embarrassing for MS especially when you add in the terribly low Bing market share. This leads me to ask a couple of questions as the default browser holding just less than 10% market share seems really weird. It used to be that all Chromium browsers were being counted as Google Chrome in some cases.  Is this still happening? Do these high Google Chrome numbers contains some Edge user numbers?
    • Browser vendors pen open letter to Microsoft saying "enough is enough"

      Yeah, all web browsers seem to have some junk in them these days. The regular Brave browser has a lot of unnecessary stuff in it, similar to Microsoft Edge, so I don't see any benefits of using Brave over Microsoft Edge if you already have Microsoft Edge fully set up with ad blockers and that. The cleanest or best free browser outside of 'Microsoft Edge' I’ve tried so far is 'Samsung Browser'. It has very little bloat and is a nice-looking web browser with an inbuilt 'Ad blocker'. I also really like the web browser called 'Floorp' that is based on Firefox. This browser can also install Chrome extensions. I have a system wide Ad blocking program for Windows 11 that doesn't just blocks ads in the web browser, but over the whole system. I don't really need a web browser with an inbuilt ad blocker because of that.
