I'm thinking of a Dilbert punchline -- "Change is good. You go first."
I understand the rush to get vaccines in place, but I'll watch how things go. My wife and I follow the protocols and I've got my fingers crossed.

For me is as in Software... I will wait until SP1

Did you ever see history portrayed as an old man with a wise brow and pulseless heart, weighing all things in the balance of reason?
Is not rather the genius of history like an eternal, imploring maiden, full of fire, with a burning heart and flaming soul, humanly warm and humanly beautiful?

I agree with what you're saying, but the problem here is that it has to be done at scale. Not quite the same challenge.

Given the weather in UK, you will not even need refrigerating.

I saw a German logistics planning session: a little area to take your shirt off (no sleeves would be the answer I guess); another area / room for the shot; then another to get dressed ...
They figure they can handle 1,000 a day. I hope that's for only one site.

Yesterday I acquainted myself with all the shortcut keys about multiple desktop functionality...
But I still struggle to use multiple desktop... Because I usually need to see most opened window together...
and if I open a new unrelated one, say some internet news I open it on my current screen, switching for the sake of going to the "news desktop" doesn't come quite naturally...
Anyway, curious, anyway using he multiple desktop feature routinely? What's your workflow with it?

I just got a bigger "monitor" - a 55" TV

nice!

They're so inexpensive these days I don't know why everyone doesn't do it.

well... 55" would be a bit big to look at from 1 feet away... and the characters might be a bit small from 10 feet away!.. :p
But, personally at home, I got 2 27" screens that have 2550x1440 resolution and 144Hz frequency, perfect for gaming and programming! 
(and I don't have a TV!  )
Might have to upgrade to 4k on day...

I mostly use it from my bed. It's not the most ergonomic thing, but it's my creative nest, although lately I've had to be at the desk I'm using as an electronics workbench.

I think at the time I simply browse my favorite online shop for the desired spec...
(which is MWave btw.. or maybe this one is from UMart?)
Anyway, my current best of 2 (it has a better response time, though I couldn't tell, and came with what was an unfortunately short HDMI cable) is:
Viewsonic VA2719-2K 27inch IPS LED Monitor

That's pretty easy to fix. If the rest is good I wouldn't mind.
Thanks. I will have a look to them

Not sure how you work, but even a laptop isn't a mere foot away.
I have a 40" 4K LG TV as my primary monitor. I use it at its native resolution, with no rescaling. At that size/resolution, text on it is a bit smaller than on the 1080p 27" monitor sitting next to it. I suspect that with 4K blown up to 55", text would be bigger than on the 27".

I use workspace matrix on Ubuntu. On this laptop ("social"), 4 wide by 1 high. Browser/Gedit for notes/Skype-Zoom-whatever/Terminal (command prompt) shared with Nautilus (file explorer)
"Work" laptop, external monitor logically and physically above. 6 desktops wide. Typically
Nautilus/secondary browser/IDE/primary browser/terminal/Thunderbird (w/calendar)
If I'm doing stuff that needs looking at two or more windows, I can drag things around very easily.
Ctrl-alt-left/right to navigate. add shift to drag the focussed window with you.
I find flipping desktops way easier than minimising/maximising/switching windows in a single workspace.
Also works really well doing meeting presentations, etc, on an external big screen. Line up the bits you want, flip through them as the show goes on.
Workspace matrix allows a 2D array, but I've never needed it, and I think the "where tf is that one?" would be distracting.
I "know" where things are in my linear setup, so I just flick to the one I want, almost never use the overview.
Cheers,
Peter

I use 'em on my laptops - just because of screen space - so I will have email and Teams one one, then 3 finger swipe to my IDE & another for the running program
Once I'm in multi-monitor world, I don't tend to use multiple desktops at all
