This text will substitute me spending copious hours on photoshopping a simulated desktop image to put on my monitor that makes it appear that I have somehow hacked windows to correctly utilize a 30 degree monitor tilt.

One vertical and one horizontal here as well. The horizontal screen sits on the docking station, so they end up the same height. I view a lot of PDF documents, and its GREAT having the vertical monitor for text and the horizontal one for engineering drawings.

One of our Dev Team Leads wins this one. I don't have a live pic of it, but here's a diagram.

Gonna have to wait until Monday. I'm sure it's stored somewhere here on the network, but the guy who edited the video left 5 minutes ago, and I have no idea where it is. When I find it I can get a capture of it though.

lol so I found it. Here's the only shot which doesn't have his bare *** in front of it. From a video made for our 2013 kickoff meeting.

Best line: "What's the point of working from home if he's gonna schedule you for a 10:30 AM meeting!"

Also my car got lifted to another parking spot in the vid:



The video was hilarious, too bad I would definitely be fired if I uploaded it here.

^ whom do you work for? if i may ask. I would love to have a DP 1.2 MST set up to show off the monitors my company makes. we have the HW, as in the video card with DP, ect ect, but not the hubs themselves. Any searches for the hubs lead to dead ends. Are you in the industry by any chance?

(full disclosure, i'm on the product development team at Monoprice.com)

LOVE THIS! I'm going to test this out on two monitors and see how annoyed I get with it for a day. Most of the spreadsheets that I view have many columns, and less rows, so usually the horizontal orientation is easier.

A software company which makes VoIP Call Center software. Nothing to do with hardware (ok well we have a SIP Gateway that we sell, but that's the only hardware). Also I'm sorry but I didn't understand anything else you said.
