In February 2020 I posted about working across two windows on my laptop and it was suggested that I get another monitor. At the time it wasn’t possible but I recently got a new table through the trading group I help to run, Adelaide Local Exchange Trading System, so I now have room for two monitors, my printer and a spot for another person to work also.
As well as helping me when I’m researching alone, I’ve been doing some one on one training in genealogy research and this set up is working very well for that too.
I don’t play many games but one that I enjoy called 0AD is great to play on the larger monitor. It’s also good for watching tv or movies, I purposely don’t have a television so I watch a lot of Youtube and Netflix on here.
What is your home office or research nook like? Does it serve multiple purposes?
I’m impressed by your work space, Kylie. My space is used for several activities using the computer. These include genealogy, photography, learning German, committee work, and transcribing my husband’s compositions in the Sibelius program. It’s time for a massive clean-up!
Thanks Julie, the bigger table I got from Sue makes it much easier. This is also my craft area too.
