Very nice, first setup that piqued a little jealousy out of me for a while.
Can you actually make use out of all that screen space for your work, or are you just an enthusiast for non-professional reasons?
Thanks.
Well not all of the time, but when, for example, I prepare a publication or a proposal I sometimes need information from many different papers. It’s much easier to have them all on one display (27” at that resolution can fit 3 PDFs) and work on the other. At the same time I may run a short code on one monitor (on PC) and check the results on the second. But I’m not always that busy so most of the time the PC is turned off.
Looks like you have a great choice of what musical device to take with you when you’re going out… Or do you take them all? O_O
I use the iphone on a daily basis. When I travel I take them all so I never run out of batteries.
Nice setup, specially the 27″ iMac + 27″ ACD!
You have a bunch of hard drives. I recommend to consolidate all that disc space in some sort of RAID powered storage. I use a 2nd gen. Drobo for that.
Thanks.
That’s an interesting idea. I’ll look into that.
wow..:) ilike your setup goerge
thanks
