course in the real world you get contract work, and the site supplies a nice big
monitor (its either 21 or 23 inch) CRT which is just a tiny bit fuzzy, so that
at high resolution you can't tell the diffrerence between ( and { in SQL
statements, and 3 programmers who know SQL can't spot the wrong
bracket either.</SPAN></FONT></DIV>

plus side I do have 2 keyboards, 2 mice, 2 monitors. The other one I can
read.</SPAN></FONT></DIV>

best set up I have seen so far had 5 huge monitors spread over 3 or
4 networked pcs, with ONE keyboard and mouse, with software sharing the
desktop space so that as the mouse went off one screen it appeared on the next
screen (on a different computer) and switched the keyboard to that PC
as well. Seriously cool.</SPAN></FONT></DIV>

face="Gill Sans MT" color=#0000ff size=2> 3 30" Dell lcd monitors for each of
us here, plus extra mice (use the left foot also) and second keyboard
(multi-dextrous), adopt self pair-programming, (left brain and eye watches the
right brain and eye - one step ahead of the chameleon). Using the David
Brennan productivity ought to be directly proportional to equipment formula:
thats 3 x 2 x 2 x 2= 24 times increase in mythical person-month
productivity, so we ought to be done by
lunchtime. Sorted.</FONT></SPAN></DIV>
