  • G400 + dual head **RANT**

    I suppose the title should have been G400Max and multiple monitors, in retrospect!

    Why did i have to go out and buy myself another monitor, i didnt have nearly enough desk space for my computer when i only had one monitor, but stupid me, i had to go out and buy myself another monitor...and it just had to be another 17" at that!
    I have gotta to be one big moron to do something like that!!!!
    <-- cant decide how i feel about the situation

    Simple solution. Put the monitor in a big ol' box, and send it to me. I'll e-mail you my shipping address.

    Then, I'll take pictures of it from time to time, doing all kinds of dual-head type stuff, and send them to you.

    Best of both worlds!

      2 lousy 17"ers?!?!
      How do you get by with that?
      My 21"+17" are just too puny.
      Poor baby.
      everyone should have dual 24"ers...

        Well... My Dual Head desktop consist of a 15" LG Studioworks and a 14" i rescued from the cemetary. Maybe When YoKomo feels the "upgrade urge" again i will give some ideas to satisfy it...

          Frankfurt, don't sweat

          Either buy a new desk, or put the second monitor on something next to your desk, like in my situation, a chair

          Works okay for me at the moment.

          In my new flat the 15" will have it's own shelve, working as booksupport at the same time, and my 17" will be on the desk.

          When I chose to go out
          I always leave the light on
          when I have to stay in,
          you always find me by the phone.

          My friends tell me that I'm lucky,
          now that I'm living on my own,
          and while they've never been more right,
          can someone tell me when will love come home?

            But you're not a Murci yet ! Your monitors are not big enough...

                When do these imaginative 17" and 21" monitors come then, Holly? Not within the next 4 weeks, I guess...

                So I can save some money to build a HUGE desk, put in the network cables, get more power-outlets around the room and install a streaming video webcam in our bedroom, linked directly to some secret thread at the FAQ Forums

                  thats all fine and good, but with a young child around this house, i dont think that i could trust the monitor bieng on a chair safely for very long

                      mY desk is soo big i dont have much access to my closet now. I had to get a biger one to accomadate the Dual 17inchers on G400MAX and the other 17incher for my second system.
                      Plus my huge Tower, and my stereo, and my printer, and my speakers (real speakers, not PC ones). This desk is a beast!

                      I really want to get like dual 19's or 21's, but alas the 135mHz RAMDAC on the second head is not enough for anything bigger than a 17......
