Honestly I'm considering moving my box to my monitor rn, just next to clear up some space. It'll help me see things a lot more tbh.

I picked up a 24" IPS monitor for the better viewing angles and brightness. Been really nice so far.

Kobe thinks his desk is messy? I'm the child king of messy desks!! (not pictured: dust)

That's a 26" tv, my work laptop, and my halowheelmen surfing machine. And my old MacBook.

For those of you who haven't had the experience of being in Criporc's room, it is a special kind of amazing. He has so many interests.

Is your work laptop that sophisticated yellow and red gizmo next to the actual laptop? Keeping your xbone by your feet to keep them toasty is a nice touch.

Yeah. Its a vTech BL Laptop. Its a few years old at this point, but still gets the job done. It has great battery life. I haven't had to recharge it at all yet.

My friend wanted a picture of my setup for some nefarious reason so I figured I should post it here too

I have one Samsung TV of unknown size(30 something?) as my main gaming screen for my XBone and PC and two 24 inch Insignia monitors on the sides. The monitor to the left is my "main secondary monitor" where I usually store my Skype chat or media player or whatever and the right monitor is actually mirrored with a large flat screen in the other room so I can just drag over a Netflix window or play games on the couch or whatever. Being mirrored is also why the aspect ratio looks wonky, the AP of the monitor is different from the TV so I chose the aspect ratio which looks much better on the much-more-important TV.
