It is an Acer 20" Monitor. They don't make it any more, but it is the same thing as the Acer Ferrari monitor, only in black. I bought it back in 2005 and it has worked great. I've never had a problem with it, and it still has a great picture.

So whats with everybody thinking they need two large lcds? Unless your a programmer I just don't see the point. I would imagine watching movies or anything else with a thick gap down the middle would be pretty annoying.

Personal preference, just because you dont want/need them doesnt mean other people shouldnt have them.

You'd be surprised how useful it is actually.

What makes you think that only programmers need space on their desktop?

And most of the people with 2+ screens don't use all of them to play movies.

I'm a computer technician, I run my own business as well, and I go to college full time. I constantly have multiple windows up and having 2 screens makes it much easier.

I'm not a programmer, but I had dual screens for a while (before I got my MBP and left for college) because my uncle got an imac and I got his old screen. The first day of using the dual setup was so disorienting and weird that I unplugged it. The next day I tried it again, and I fell in love with it. Just think in terms of stretching your screen to twice the length and how much more on screen real estate you get.

    • Chrome is Google's commercial web browser product; it consists of their proprietary features (Googlified everything including profile sync) plus their chromium project barebones web browser. Google developers control the chromium project. The chromium project is the "core" for the web browser product from other vendors including Microsoft Edge (their own proprietary features), Opera (their own features), Brave (their own features), etc... The "downstream" teams at Microsoft, Opera, Brave, etc., can either integrate their original MV2-supporting code into future builds, or they can integrate chromium wholesale and simply add-on their own features/functionalities -- their 'current' build pipeline, so to speak. THIS is why changes at the chromium project affect so many products besides only Google's commercial Chrome browser.
    • You're comparing settler colonies to colonized war torn nations. It's easy to become the richest by coming in and stealing other people's land, culture and resources.
    • ABP has become "old news" when MV3 started rolling out. They've gone downhill and is now simply irrelevant..... in my experience.
    • About two years ago, I switched to Brave and haven't looked back.
    • FWIW StatCounter has been trash for over 25+ years! Back in the day (circa 2000 and GeoCities pre-Blogger era), it was useful to paste a number on your webpage indicating how many visitors you had. In the ensuing 25+ years, they've grown in reputation and changed their ways... but their overall consumer value has remained abysmal. Serious marketing agencies only cite StatCounter when there's literally no other sources available to support any marketing claims! They are the absolute lowest threshold serious companies use to push any sort of narrative about this-or-that happening. Besides their credibility being what it is, they are forever subject to quality issues. They're so bad that my DNS-level ad-filter prevents me from even viewing their main website! HA!
