Ah yes, David. The curse of multi-monitors: once you've had a taste of multiple screens, going back to a single screen almost feels like someone is asking you to work with a feather pen and ink. It's doubly frustrating when you're trying to collaborate with a colleague while standing over his his shoulder and squinting at his 14" laptop screen. It is so much easier to work together on a big 23" or larger monitor. Fortunately, monitors costs so little nowadays that it's easy for me to buy an extra display or two for work, even if my employer can't buy them for me. Viva la multi-monitor revolution! “It drives me nuts when I don’t have a minimum of two screens.” Ah yes, David.
