		crowbahr on Dec 2, 2021 \| parent \| context \| favorite \| on: Ideal Monitor Rotation for Programmers The top of my tall monitor is level with the top of my landscape monitor. So I look down to see the bottom of my tall monitor, straight ahead to see the top of either. I also have one overhead monitor to glance up at for reference or other pages. 80% of my work is done on my main monitor. 15% on the tall. 5% on the overhead. The overhead is still very useful though.

I'm glad you have this setup.. I have resisted the urge to get an ultra wide monitor.

I really want to know how it would feel to have one narrow edge on the physical desk, with the long curve of the display arching up overhead.
