21:9 curved 34" or two nice, energy efficient 24"?

the two 24" are not substantially cheaper, but will use substantially less energy. generally, i would also prefer EIZO over Dell, but that's more of a sidenote. in terms of screen real estate, they're 7.5% apart in favor of the curved.

Too big and too fucking wide.

Dual screen is shit and useless. Learn to manage your windows. 1 24" screen is fucking fine.

I dunno.
Only used a 11" laptop screen since 2010.
And it works just fine when I use dwm.

Dual 24s
One portrait

I feel like the ultra-wide screen is just for immersive gaming. If that's the sort of thing you like, you should go for it. Same size dual monitors seems kind of wacky. If you're gonna go dual monitors I'd favor one large screen (27″ probably) and a smaller one in portrait orientation. This is popular for artists, they put their primary window on the main monitor and controls and references on the side one. I'm not an artist but I like it anyways. I enjoy gaming fullscreen with chat and other stuff on the second monitor.

Personally, I'm waiting to change monitors until OLEDs have come out and there's a little more support for higher res, like 2160p.

i've sat in front of one. it's actually quite amazing to work, the curvature really does wonders for how the size feels.
>Dual screen is shit and useless
well, i know what you mean actually. i'm not a big fan either, although it hugely depends on what you're doing. hence, the big curved monitor: screen estate like two displays, manageable like one.

i do love my x230, it's literally the perfect laptop. however, i hook it up to a 23" FHD display at work and it's just much more comfortable to work on.


i apologize, i should've specified my use cases.
- office shit (browser, email, the usual)
- some layout and powerpoint work
- lots and lots and lots of code

... and my environments
- OS X, slate for window management, lots of iTerm
- Linux, i3wm
- vim

7:3 monitors are fantastic for video work. With the extra horizontal space I can increase productivity by making shit easier to visualize as I can see more things without having to scroll left or right as much.
