Some historic former manufacturing plants have a dark side, as these environmental monitoring wells at the former John Lucas/Sherwin-Williams Paint Works plant site show. The area is an EPA Superfund site.
I like these guys. This is a lace monitor, one of the goanna family. They can grow up to 2 metres. They nearly always see/sense you first and up a tree they go. Sometimes they run up humans by mistake. Check out the claws. The latest research points to them being venomous but they are certainly not in the high risk to be around category unlike several of their Australian reptilian relatives. I like the fact they run up a tree often to about eyeballing height, it gives a lets check each other out opportunity. I don't hang round too long, prefer to let them have their space. There's plenty of room in the bush for both of us...
Here is my new dual-monitor iMac setup. Also shown in the picture are my Sprint PPC 6700 PocketPC and my Dell Inspiron notebook.
The big monitor in the middle is new. It's actually a "gamer" monitor like a colleague has at home and that we got a very good deal on. Some more desk rearranging is definitely forthcoming.
Or should the title have been, "Does Size Matter?"?
Boy, things have changed since my wife and I went to college! They've even changed since our oldest son, now 27, attended.
Yesterday, we used Skype to have a conversation, for more than hour, with our youngest son, attending school in New York. His roommates came and went, each saying hello. Evan played the mandolin for us. It was as if we were in the same room for a time. And, the experience was free.
Once in a while, people simply need a good skyping!

excuse the mess.
this photo somewhat demonstrates the triple monitor setup i have been running since ~2003. the video card that powers the 3 18" LCDs is a matrox parhelia 512 256mb agp card. the stand the monitors are mounted on is an Ergotron triple monitor stand, which i highly recommend.
the windows desktop spans across all 3 monitors rather than mirroring 1 desktop on 2 screens or just having the other screens as empty space. the bundled software allows programs, windows, etc to remember their locations and to maximise to fit either just one panel or to maximise across all three screens.
this setup is particularly handy if you try to do a lot of things at once (like i do) or like having tons of screen real estate. i can run email on one screen, itunes/winamp/whatever + AIM on another screen, and leave the center screen for web browsing. did i mention that this arrangement is downright incredible for photoshop?

The first try. Nice experiments; don't forget to give a look at the whole transparent screens group.
