I have 2 Dell 24 inchers side by side with blazing fast Ivy Bridge rig that most gamers would envy (I'm not a gamer though, I just like a V12 under the hood). I think this is the most optimal set up for a programmer. With 2 x 27 inch there would be a little bit too much head turning, same goes for 3 any size displays. In my opinion 2 displays is a must for a web developer, since there's always a browser on one display and a code editor on the other.
- pimeys 14y agoSame here. I've been using two 24" monitors for ages and it's always a bit annoying to do something with my laptop.
- swah 14y agoHow do you setup them? I suppose you have a primary one facing you like if it was a single monitor?
- pimeys 14y agoNo, they're a bit away from my position and equally placed to left and right.
- briandear 14y agoI have the twin Dell 24's with an MBP -- here's an image how I have it setup: http://briandear.tumblr.com/post/24403674220/my-development-setup http://briandear.tumblr.com/post/24403674220/my-development-... Maybe not the "best" way, but perfect for my workflow (I deal with mobile web development so I need a bunch of small browser windows open simultaneously to test on the multitude of mobile user agents.) I usually have specs, chrome, campfire, email on the left, code in the center and my development browser windows on the right.
