Moving right along...
So as of Friday that was officially the last day our company had a physical office presence. We are waiting to see if the bid on the new office is accepted.

It's a Dell Lattitude E6520 series with a dedicated Nvidia card in it. With the docking station that provides 3 monitors total.

While not good for gaming they work wonders for screen real estate. During the take-down of the office another one became available as well as a monitor that will do portrait mode. That becomes my comms monitor because those apps have a vertical contact list format. Thus monitor number 5.
I have an older version of one of these boxes on my gaming machine to provide me a third head on that. Though if I end up with another large monitor I'll probably take that off and just run two of them and move the USB unit to the Linux desktop.
So yes in practice if I had a round desk I could ring myself 360 degrees with monitors. The sad part is the non work ones are mostly limited to 1280x1024 resolution.
And yes I'm a monitor hog. I blame years of tiny screens and aging eyeballs.
