What does your desk look like?

@creayt The RAID card that was the original T110 couldn't rebuild RAIDs if you can believe it, you could setup a RAID 1 and if a disk failed it was basically a warning to transfer everything and start all over. I don't know if this is true in what you have, but I'd certainly look into it to be sure, they didn't tell us this when we ordered like 10 of them nor was it apparent even when setting up the RAIDs

It could rebuild with the original S100 but it was a software based raid really. You had to use Dell Open Manage Server to control it and rebuild the array, which took forever on that card. It was a bad implementation but it could rebuild arrays.

Really? Well, we sold them all so no big deal, but yes you're on the money with the exact card.

Good to know, thanks.
I actually use that box as a local web/app/database server atop a Raid 0 of SSDs, so if it dies it dies anyway.

@creayt That's really freaking weird... but strangely it seems to work

I have often wondered if that would be more useful or not. Still trying to decide though...

I'm offended for Iron Man that you put him in-league with inferior superheroes.

It's extremely useful for web browsing and coding. The only time I ever need a wide aspect ratio is when doing graphic design or database queries returning mass quantities of fields. For literally everything else the portrait orientation is spectacular, allowing you to scroll and scan much less while giving you a much more clear and present feel for the scope of any content ( which just feels great ).

I wonder how much eye/neck strain you'll end up with because you are looking up higher than normal?
I have users who complain about the width of two wide screen monitors, having to swing their head left to right and back to see everything.
I realize there is no perfect solution. I read last week that it's suggested to sit more to the left of your displays as it will cause you to be looking more straight ahead at the left monitor (assuming that's the default) and glancing to the right as needed, potentially causing less neck stress.
