bringing 2nd monitor to work
 
First OOT post. I've browsed for bit but sorry if my ignorance is way too apparent.

So... has anyone else gotten so used to having a 2 or 3 monitor setup at home that it's just infuriating to have only 1 at work?

I do genetic data analysis for a laboratory so I sit at a computer all day, with multiple windows open all over the place (including this one).

I have an extra monitor laying around at home that I thought I'd bring here to work.

Has anyone else done this? Do your co-workers think you're crazy?

Yeah, I think so... it's a Dell purchased in January, with a flat panel. I can hook my CRT from home into the analog slot.

Why not try and get your groups admin to get you a second one then instead of bringing one in?

FWIW, i have 3 monitors at work :P

I thought about that, but then everyone might be like, why does HE get an extra one? There's three other people in my group who do exactly what I do and they're fine with one monitor, but I just don't think I can take it anymore.

I thought I would get less flack if I just brought in my own.
