I Have Three Screens Attached To The PC In My Office. Does This Make Me Royalty Too?

I had five when I started here - I'm now down to 2 (by choice). Don't know what 5 screens says about the last incumbent...

 

They enjoyed flight simulators? :) Although, I have 3 at the moment, and sometimes I wish I had 4...

Thats one theory (not mine ;))...

 

 

Actually I use a Ubuntu desktop so I have 4 virtual screens with 2 physical screens on each virtual screen. So I effectively have 8 screens in total. Does that mean I have a superiority complex? possibly!

The office staff call my desk the bridge of the Enterprise. I reckon its just jealousy. ;)

Wish I was on bridge of the Enterprise and had easy access to the Phaser Banks and the Transporter Systems.. would make life a bit easier....

Oh not to mention the Replicators (not the SG-1 kind tho!) and a Holodeck....

I have up to 7 screens going ... laptop and extended desktop, council machine, graphics display screen, photo frame (yeah ... cheating perhaps), iPad and iPhone ... I do occasionally type on two keyboards at once as well ... frequently using two mice.

Yes, but you have to carry a rucksack just to carry around all your phones too! :p

only 4 virtual desktops? 6 on both my netbook and net top plus my PC at home means i have 13 desktops :D

 

i get annoyed using my puny one monitored windows machine having to have loads of programs on one desktop

It was fun at Yesterday's session at MS in Reading ... the question came up about who was using what phone ... had to remember to put my hand down at the end of it.
