Other than cloning my desktop and then flipping one around, I have to have them get up, move their chairs and come behind my desk. Its awkward. Now, someone said there are better and cheaper methods to accomplish this. That would be cool, and I would love to hear the suggestions.]]>Jul 16th 2009 3:01PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/07/16/evgas-quirky-interview-dual-lcd-display-reviewed/http://www.engadget.com/2009/07/16/evgas-quirky-interview-dual-lcd-display-reviewed/
When both monitors are pointed at you, you have a dual monitor setup. When you flip one monitor to face your guest, it automatically switches to a mirrored single monitor view. This saves the person behind the desk from the process of going into display settings and changing to mirrored, then manually turning the second monitor, stand, and cables to face the other direction. With this, you simply flip the screen like opening a laptop. I have a similar monitor on my desk right now.

Considering that this is likely to be placed at the center of a table, not terribly close to the users' eyes, 1440x900 seems reasonable.]]>Jul 16th 2009 9:36AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/07/16/evgas-quirky-interview-dual-lcd-display-reviewed/http://www.engadget.com/2009/07/16/evgas-quirky-interview-dual-lcd-display-reviewed/Jul 16th 2009 9:49AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/07/16/evgas-quirky-interview-dual-lcd-display-reviewed/http://www.engadget.com/2009/07/16/evgas-quirky-interview-dual-lcd-display-reviewed/Jul 16th 2009 9:39AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/07/16/evgas-quirky-interview-dual-lcd-display-reviewed/http://www.engadget.com/2009/07/16/evgas-quirky-interview-dual-lcd-display-reviewed/Jul 16th 2009 9:43AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/07/16/evgas-quirky-interview-dual-lcd-display-reviewed/http://www.engadget.com/2009/07/16/evgas-quirky-interview-dual-lcd-display-reviewed/Did some quick right-angle triangle math:

One 17" monitor with 16:9 ratio is approximately 8.33" high and 14.8" wide. So two will be 8.33" high (unchanged) and 29.6" wide (viewable area only, does not include gap between displays).
So the total viewable diagonal should be just under 31".

Note that this assumes that the 17" label is accurate, which I'm pretty sure it's not.]]>Jul 16th 2009 10:57AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/07/16/evgas-quirky-interview-dual-lcd-display-reviewed/http://www.engadget.com/2009/07/16/evgas-quirky-interview-dual-lcd-display-reviewed/Jul 16th 2009 9:50AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/07/16/evgas-quirky-interview-dual-lcd-display-reviewed/http://www.engadget.com/2009/07/16/evgas-quirky-interview-dual-lcd-display-reviewed/

There are better, cheaper ways to accomplish the same thing and not be locked into their hardware setup.]]>Jul 16th 2009 10:25AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/07/16/evgas-quirky-interview-dual-lcd-display-reviewed/http://www.engadget.com/2009/07/16/evgas-quirky-interview-dual-lcd-display-reviewed/Jul 16th 2009 11:01AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/07/16/evgas-quirky-interview-dual-lcd-display-reviewed/http://www.engadget.com/2009/07/16/evgas-quirky-interview-dual-lcd-display-reviewed/
With a monitor mount it's much more visible, because normally it doesn't match the monitors. Also, all of your cabling is visible. You can hide it with split loom, but this has 1 USB cable, 1 monitor cable (which splits to 2 DVI closer to the computer), and 1 power cable, which is more like a laptop power cable.

It's definitely a niche product. I have no practical use for it, but some will. I would have preferred large monitors (Perhaps 19 or 20"?), but there's always v2.

Which one is it?
