One reason I like my job... - bazookaman - 10-15-2013
In my post below I asked about which monitor to get. I picked a Dell U2713H. Which is a nice 27inch 2560x1440 Ultrasharp monitor. After I told the IT guy that the boss approved it, the IT guy came back to me and told me that the boss asked him "is there a bigger one?" So now THEY are trying to talk ME into getting the Dell 30 incher.

Don't DO it ! Hold out for smaller !
Better yet, have them drop ship the 30" one to me, and I"ll mail you a retro 15" ADC monitor !

27" @ 2560 x 1440 for $600
or
30" @ 2560 x 1600 for $1100
Ask for dual 27"s instead -- same cost =)

Oooh! Even better!
Saving the company money, and getting dual 27" monitors!

That IS a thought. I'm just not a two monitor person. And by that I mean two equal monitors. I've always had a large one for "work" and a small one for palettes and email etc. I can imagine using 1 27 inch monitor but not 2.

Get better at imagining?

I'd stick with the 30". It's nice and huge, plus it's a 16x10 whereas the 27" are 16x9. For productivity, I find the 16x10 form factor a better fit.

I would say get a 55" 4K TV for a display, but none of the laptops that Dell sells have HDMI 2.0 or DisplayPort 1.2 and therefore can't drive the display at 60 Hz.
