  1. And the shredded armrests, repaired with duct tape?
    Couple tough trades will do that.

    Armrest really not shredded - My ideal chair height results in armpads constantly bashing against desk egdes - and yes the bashing happens a lot during those long losing periods - so why not get myself some cheap insurance than replacing expensive chairs every month. :D

  3. This is what happens when you return to the office after working from home over Christmas .......

    Though the Sponge Bob Square Pants wrapping paper was a nice touch.

    Is it just me or does anyone get put off by monitors that don't match? I've found that it really distracts me when I have monitors that are multiple sizes/models unless they're organized REALLY well (like cinemassive).

  5. those monitors are way too spread out. I have the same duct tape issues with the chair banging the "desk".

    I'm going to buy 2 more monitors that match (4 + laptop) and put them in a rack. I dont want to have to move my head to see something & yes I'm bothered by monitors that do not match.

  6. He is probably a fixed income trader hence the double height screens. If the display setup makes it easier to make money then it looks good to me.

  7. Out of my 15 monitors, only a few of them are identical.

    Different technologies, makes, models, sizes, colors. Bought at different times over about 9 years.

    Would I ditch all the existing ones and buy 15 x of the newest make/model I like? Err.... no.

    I don't choose style over substance.

  8. LOL! Yup. Bugs the heck out of me as well. I solved the problem by getting rid of all except one :)

    Do what pleases you and your pocket - no need though for un-constructive criticism on what someone else prefers - its more like trading styles one man's meat is another's poison.
