Multiple Monitors

Industrial Control Room Example from the 1990s

This is a strategy is particularly useful for those

• who want to be doing more than one thing at a time and
• want to see what is going on in any of them at the same moment of time
• or want to stretch the thing they are doing
• or want to create fences and work areas on their desktop

It has become relatively easy and inexpensive to do so, given the current technology and the different connect-able and reach-able monitors available.

• Write and share programs utilizing three monitors - One Central with one each left and right, the center being the desktop and the others extensions of that desktop.
