I’m with you. A common example is the weekly meeting I chair. I can have everything we are going over on my left monitor. Center monitor has my meeting notes that I type up discussion points to complete after the meeting. Right monitor has slack up which is useful if I need to ping someone for input on something if they couldn’t be on the meeting or another resource. Even if I don’t get a response right away I typically have one by the time I’m finishing up the meeting notes. My mind works better having a separate physical monitor to break up my space. I have a 42” wide screen and 24” monitor for my personal computer and I want to downgrade the larger one. The 42” is too big for me, I enjoy snapping windows around with the arrow keys and changing virtual desktops feels too abrupt to avoid interrupting my mental processing. I think folks all process things a little bit different and I’m just happy I’ve found something that works for me and others have options that work for them.
