If you've got a decent enough monitor I find moi's interface pretty ecconomic as it is - can't really see the need for multiple monitors but I guess i only ever use one anyway. I do like the scaleable UI feature very cool having it as a slider!!!

INDEED, even on my Dell laptop 1920x1200 res, MoI look "empty". you can imagine how it looks on 30-inch Displays.

Neither did I till I had them :-)

Over the last few months my work has been adding a second monitor to all the CAD and engineer's stations as they have finally woken up to the productivity gains. It also saves on printing: people open the PDF, specification, email or whatever, on the second screen and read it there rather than print it out.

 

>> I do like the scalable UI feature very cool having it as a slider!!!

I like this too, but not as much as being able to move palettes onto the second one and arrange them the way I would like, ala Photoshop, Fireworks, modo, etc. ;-)

Of course if we all had 30" LCDs there would be no problem LOL

Still, Michael has said he'll look at it eventually - so I'm hopeful.



[edit]>>even on my Dell laptop 1920x1200 res, MoI look "empty". you can imagine how it looks on 30-inch Displays.

Whoa, my screens are only 1600x1200, what do you guys consider a 'normal' size? [edit]

Why two monitors when you can have an EIZO or other 30” @ native 2560 x 1600 ?

Hi Yannada,

> look "empty". you can imagine how it looks on 30-inch Displays.

I think that the new scene browser in "inside" mode will do a pretty good job of making use of that currently empty space on a large display.

Cost - pure and simple. I can't afford it, so I have two 21".

Yep ... same here!

It's gorgeous but big bucks ... I'll be happy with my 19/21 combo for some time to come.

Just upgraded cpu and motherboard, ram and hard drive for less than a third of the cost of a 30" monitor.

cheers,
eric

Well I did say I would brag, so this seems like the appropriate place.

I got my new 30 inch with a 24 inch next to it :O

No more room problems.

Why the second monitor? Since my brain is such a small one :O I cant retain anything so I use alot of reference material and demo video (Second monitor while working). I watch michael draw a 6 toed somthingorother while I work.

Well, with 54 inches of screen space I suppose you have a right to brag :-)

Jealous, me? Never ;-)
