The things I do is that sometimes I want to multitask such as writing a blog on which I'm doing now and have my Facebook on the right. I could do many things such as with this kind of screen estate such as having YouTube on the left and Facebook on the right and more and also have my Skype window up as I game with my friends or brother which is so cool. Easy as pie!
When I was on vacation I was using my 14" Dell Latitude E6420 so comparing to this is that you don't need a 27" monitor setup or anything that fancy, two monitors will solve the problem here. Since I have a very dedicated GPU (EVGA Nvidia GeForce GTX 650 Ti Boost 2GB) solves the problem with dual DVI so my second monitor doesn't need to connect to VGA. Like before I have these monitors. I was using a 19" I-INC which was a 1400x900 and I couldn't compare this to that, the colors are a little bit identical but once getting use to it's okay, also I would compare that my 17" HP Pavilion G7 has a good 1600x900 display back in the time.
Many times I would use that laptop for that second display and this is why I would want this thing to happen especially if I didn't have to room to do it. I know on the pictures is that my Snowball is in the middle of the second monitor but I was considering getting myself a boom so that I could see that monitor fine but other than that they're expensive like $100 for one from ROBE on Amazon.
This was awesome worthy upgrade to my computer setup and couldn't say on how would anyone put another one on a small desk, I don't really need a new straight desk or a L-shape. This is totally amazing!
