    Just wondering what you guys have for computer setups. I just got anew laptop last night and I found an old monitor just collection dust in my closet so I decided to hook the monitor to my laptop. :D

    It doesn't look like it's hooked up to your laptop.

    Yeah, one has a website open and on my other screen I have WMP open. I don't have it so it stretches on both screens. If you look on the left of the laptop you will see the VGA hookup going into the laptop.

    I usually run tri-monitors through 2 20's and a 36 inch all the way to quads with 4 20's just depends on my mood I guess you can say. Pictures will be up shortly.

    Nice backseat mod...

    As for me I just have a Toshiba laptop that my dad bought in 2003 and passed down to me when I went to college.

    I could easily grab a third that is laying a few metres away unused, but that seems overkill for me... maybe once I have my shit set up right it may be put to use.

    The keyboard is an original Logitech G15 gaming keyboard.

    Your computer has to support multiple monitors which means that it either needs two VGA hookups, or one VGA and one HDMI (If you have a monitor with a HDMI hookup).

    old pic, but nothing has changed

    TDD, those monitors are way to high up. Awful ergonomics :) They are supposed to below or at eye level

    yessir :)

    and by at eye level, I mean that the very top of the monitor should be level with your eyes. Either your desk is super low or the monitors are too high :p

    Whatever works for you though, I guess. I just hate seeing poor ergonomics, since I deal with it at work all day and it kills me >_<
