  • Yeah im similar. I still use 1080 monitors and just 2 at a regular workspace. Its about the perfect DPI for reading text. Things like 4k just make it harder or you have to bump up the fractional scaling, in which case why the more pixels?

    Im fine to keep it to a laptop monitor when im mobile, and 2+laptop monitor for email when at a desk.





  • They even had a super compact version. Something like a d400. Was awesome for datacenter/console work. Had a serial port, vga and was like 12.3 inches and only a few pounds despite being stout.

    I think I used a d6xx for a while longer than I should have just because of that serial port and how bad usb to serial adapters were back then.

    Unfortunately the d420 had a slower processor and would struggle as a desktop replacement.
