I've got 3 Dell 24" monitors that can be used in portrait mode. (U2412M - 95dpi 1920x1200 eIPS - not expensive. But many Dell monitors come with this sort of stand.) When I had a desktop PC with 2 GPUs I had them lined up that way in a row. It have to say it was a bit menacing at first - it's about a 48" diagonal. But, you know... you make do. I took a few pictures at the time but the only one I've got handy is it running Doom: http://ffe3.com/pics/.3monitors/IMG_1327.JPG http://ffe3.com/pics/.3monitors/IMG_1327.JPG In the end I missed the horizontal space often enough that I've now settled on having at least one full-size - i.e., not laptop display - landscape display in the setup. (Currently I've got my laptop, 1 x landscape in front of me, and 1 x portrait to the side.) If you're going to do this, I guess you want to buy IPS-type monitors to minimize colour discrepancies due to the wide range of viewing angles you'll be using. eIPS is supposed to have a 170° viewing angle, but the colours on mine still aren't quite consistent from side to side (or top to bottom as it is once rotated). If you've got a TN-type display I imagine it will be even worse. Also might be worth buying all your monitors at once. I bought mine over a couple of years; the colour temperature is very slightly different on each one, even when using the factory-calibrated settings, and one has a noticeably different anti-glare coating.
