Maybe I'm messed up, ( likely ) none the less I use the 15" MBP and two 17" flats on either side, one is connected to a KVM for those moments when you simply cannot connect to something locally any other way. And the second is an extension of the notebook.
My issue is windows piling up, really becomes an issue. I could use several different desktops, that alone does not solve anything , in fact it screws me up in more then one way, more then I care to deal with. If you've used it regular you already know the issues when working with 6+ apps and several desktops.
I've watched different external monitor systems starting around 2008 run anywhere from 800- 1200$ , dumb, unless your loose with your change. Now averaging 50 bones for a USB to DVI , still too much.
Suggestions ? I'm not beyond hacking something up to make it work.
