Triple monitor set-up. Or four. Does a phone count as a monitor?

Visiting family for Easter has been kinda nice. It'd be swell if more people had a socio-biological imperative to put up with me.
Are these "human rights" in the room with us right now?

Are you preparing to jack into the matrix?

That said, I know the joys of multiple monitors. I could do with 3 at home. I think any more would be excessive though.

The West won the world not by the superiority of its ideas or values or religion … but rather by its superiority in applying organized violence. Westerners often forget this fact; non-Westerners never do.
--S. Huntington

The most fundamental problem of politics is not the control of wickedness but the limitation of righteousness.

It would help my coding immensely. One screen for documentation, another for the IDE, and a third for the output.

I don't really have the figure for it. I'd look like a Vampire that got jacked-up on the blood of a gym full of steroid-using body-builders.

The bf has two. That seems like an ideal amount of monitors to me. I can't see how three plus could be positioned in a way that doesn't involve massively craning your neck.
