How about multiple monitors? That's been my solution--I'm currently running with my main monitors being 3x 19" @ 1280x1024. These screens are ancient, these days I see nothing comparable.
- swiftcoder 3y agoI used to run 3x 21" monitors, and at one point work assigned me dual 32" monitors. But I find I don't love the bezels inbetween, and I do like the vertical real estate of a big 16:9 monitor. I also connect my MacBook to the same setup, which is somewhat... funky in its handling of multiple monitors (and I believe only supports 2 external monitors at a time)
- LorenPechtel 3y agoI don't like the bezels, but I really do like the large pixels of the 19" monitors. Sure, text scales fine on bigger monitors but most program icons do not. The bezels are a lesser evil than a big monitor to me--but the monitors must be matched. I can tune out the bezels pretty well (and working in a reasonably dark area helps) but I can't tune out mouse misbehavior when crossing the line. I have a portable screen for my laptop, it doesn't match and I do not like that at all.
- swiftcoder 3y agoYou might actually like one of the low-res ultrawides in that case. There are a number of 21:9 monitors with the pretty low resolution of 2560x1080 - and even a few in the fairly absurd 32:9 aspect ratio (3840x1080). I don't like those precisely because I can see the pixels, but they do have great screen real estate.
