I'm not sure whether your think this is a good thing or bad thing. Personally, I hate 16:9 with every bone in my body, so if someone replaced the wonderful 3x 4:3 monitors in the first picture with the abominations in the second picture, I'd be ready to kill them. |

Why? More screen real estate is a good thing. |

For the record, I'm happy with the extra real estate. The old monitors didn't really give me enough room to feel truly comfortable with all the things I tend to have open while at work, so this is a "good thing" in my book

Three monitors of any aspect ratio is a bit much for me, but I do all of my work on a 15 inch screen. |

Yeah, I can't stand the thought of the bezels segmenting my workspace. I just have a 27" monitor and I'm good. |

I like 3 monitors, 1 for my IDE, one for my test servers, and one for Google/references. Sent from my Nexus 7 using Tapatalk |

I could probably deal with three, even, though by that point you're getting so much un-snappable space that it feels like it would become a pain in the ***. But I need to echo this for my home computer, where I spend as much time watching video and playing games as I do referencing multiple windows and spreadsheets. |

Why? More screen real estate is a good thing. Too much horizontal, not enough vertical. Personally, I'm using 2x 16:10 24" monitors and one 4:3 2", all Dell Ultrasharps- they've all got 1200px vertical resolution, and then 1900, 1900 and 1600 horizontal respectively. The extra vertical real-estate is huge for me- they're all the perfect size for a full 11" vertical document to fit, and with the 2 24" monitors I can tile 4 pages side-by-side to work. You'll always get more screen real-estate at 16:10 than 16:9, and technically, always more with 4:3 than 16:9, assuming you have enough monitors. |
