Re: My new setup
Nice, one day i hope to be able to have 2 monitors, really great to be able to watch everything at once.
Re: My new setup
I run an old laptop with a VGA and HDMI port. For Xmas, there were budget monitors on special and my wife, knowing I was saving for one, bought me one, with the suggestion I then use my saved money to buy a matching second. Which I did.
Being more modern and accepting HDMI as well as VGA, I can now run 3 screens. Haven't run Run8 properly yet with the three yet, but will run as per bill3779's setup with the maps on the laptop.
Played with Run8 on 2 screens, but just for fun. Will just use the one screen for Run8 itself.
----------------
I will use all three screens for work (I am a consultant) when doing documentation. I bought an old 1940's Manager s desk - it's huge and everything fits nicely.
(Couldn't add an attachment - assume its because I am new to the board)
