Master Chief defeats all aliens, then in a moment of ultimate triumph, standing on hill of slain covenant, slowly takes off his face mask, revealing his true identity..........Gordon Freeman.

I just connected a third monitor to my screen. Huzza!

Have a look!

The smaller one to the left will be replaces by a 1600*1200 lcd screen when I get back to my appartment with my computer. The middle and right one are connected to a 6800gt APG card with two connectors, and the left one to an old ATI PCI card.

I guess four screens is the next step. If I could get my hands on a free monitor I'd probably go for it.

EDIT:

Here's a shot of what my setup looks like.

Gotta protect my msn contacs privacy hehe ;D

I think most people that do mapping/photo editing/modelling etc would benefit from having at least two monitors. Hammer on one monitor and a tutorial or forum on the other, photoshop on one screen and all the panels on the other, etc. Plus you feel extra geeky which is great. <img src=" SRC="images/smiles/icon_biggrin.gif">

I love how I feel surrounded by monitors. If I had a more powerful PC, and happened to find a crappy monitor for free I could use the forth monitor for displaying MilkDrop visulizations all the time. Ahhh, the possibilities...

They sure do. Not a lot of action going on in there though, no one has replied to what I wrote after 3 hours.

Wow, how cool is that. I would feel bad though if I myself connected a second monitor to my laptop because of the extra electricity consumption. The whole global warming man, peace dude. Save the whales, love not war.

Aaron, I really don't think that adding an additional LCD monitor is going to kill any whales, just don't start doing stuff like this

Yeah, what Natus said. I doubt LCD electricity consumption is the biggest threat to the world. Wicked video btw.

You fools, little do you realize that whale farts are the leading cause of global warming!

But seriously, whether or not it's GW is real, we can spare a few kilowatts.

@Otzman
Does printscreen get you all that? That's nuts! Not that I wouldn't expect it, but it's still kind of cool.



Also change the texture of the dock. Docks are rarely tile. -Facepunch

Aaron, if you want to save electricity, I know an electronic device you could turn off.

Do we really need global warming as a motivation to reduce the amount of poisenous gas that is pumped in our environment? Look at a place like Beijing. Those athletes will drop dead after running 100 meters through that smog next year.

I think the only useful way of reducing the energy consumption at home us turning of "standby" modes when you don't really use them. That's like... 50%? of the total energy used in an average household.
