I put in a second monitor at work today. Well, I put it on the desktop and Ozzy from our helpdesk actually put in a second video card to support it. It’s actually an older monitor that was sitting on a shelf.
You see, I run a piece of monitoring software called Spotlight on SQL Server. It’s a great piece of technology from Quest Software that lets me see in real-time what’s happening on my SQL servers. Notice that the monitor isn’t directly beside my 19” Sony monitor with Reggie’s picture as the desktop. I wanted it off to the side so it’s not directly in my line of sight all the time. This will allow me to see what’s going on without it being directly in my face.
Between the two monitors sits my phone and wireless headset. Just to the right of the smaller monitor is my Sirius receiver.
To the left of my Sony monitor sits my laptop. If you look closely, you’ll see Reggie’s bed under the desk.
One of the awesome things about my office would be the lights. Felix, our office services supervisor, totally hooked me up there. I have the full spectrum lights. The walls went from DMV yellow to beige. The pictures you see here were taken without my camera’s flash.
