Certainly, it was scary to commit so much coin to a 30" display, and throw away the year-old extra juice card I put in the G5 from the start with a special card for the 30".
And while at the beginning, it was GREAT! I am having second thoughts. Here they are:
Since I'm in the middle of producing this book project, I have three page layouts in InDesign, Word documents, Adobe Photoshop CS2 and the new Adobe Bridge [an improved File Browser] open with two working and rendering copies of ArchiCAD open - one for book exercises and one for my REAL WORK. Not to mention email and web browser. Got to stay in touch. Lot of overlap since you want everything BIG. Management crisis. Thank you for EXPOSE - Apple feature to see all windows at once instantly.
Having a single display again is an organizational challenge - While it is horrifying to think that I'll need TWO of these monsters [and how will I look at them both at the same time without messing up my body considering the month of physiotherapy because of bad posture [keep your chin IN!!!] and eye correction issues requiring a special low position mount for the display - and why is the Aeron chair taking so long to arrive?] the truth is that, regretfully, I am thinking that two 23" Sony or Apple or even the questionable bottomofthebarrel Ben-Q displays is a better overall choice.
There. I admitted it. Ergonomics wins.
