Dell P4317Q

 

Run away?? A giggle probably means she was on her way to high school.....

 

Dual monitors and quad monitors? How does anyone work with 2 and/or 4 monitors?

 

I've basically got to have at least 2. Makes it so much easier to translate pdf plats to CAD.

 

Well if you can work with so few. . . I have 10 46" monitors and 32 28" monitors at my workstation and still need a few more.

 

Dude. You don’t have a PDF to cad software? I got my previous employer to drop some serious $$$$ on a software and it made life 10 times easier.

 

Shit nah

They want me to verify everything and draw it by hand.

Shots tough sometimes!

 

Well if they are paying you per hour I guess that’s okay. I’m all about automation. Scripts and batch files for everything. If I can come complete the tasks faster and with less human error my employer makes more money and I become efficient. Hopefully that translates into better raises.

 

Control rooms don’t count.

 

Silly newb!

 

You’d be amazed at the flexibility a multi-monitor setup for a personal or home office.

Other environments (e.g. professional office) require multi-monitor arrangements so that large volumes of data, or data from multiple inputs, can be displayed.

Control room of some kind?

 

You are right. I should be lazy and non productive and complain about my salary.

 

Maaaaan, I suggest things around here and get looks like I'm speaking a foreign language lol.

 

The best I can do, the others have proprietary information on them.

 

That's better, I'd like to welcome you to the real world.



JK, keep up the good work.

 

Damnit, I need to step up my game!

 

Well, then you aren't speaking their language. If they are managers with budgets, speak $$$ to them, not functions or capabilities. Gotta sell it to them in terms they relate to, not what makes sense to you.

 

I hear ya loud and clear.
