I understood that years ago. Being used to a 4K 40" TV as primary display, and separate 27" and 24" monitors, will do that. Even with that configuration sometimes things feel a little cramped.

Glad for you, but 4k saved me from multimonitor purgatory.
Now I just have one lovely 55" screen. If I need windows to open on a particular "monitor" I use Win+Arrow. Easy peasy, lemon squeezy, and no mucking about.

Yeah, since he is the inventor of the portable cat flap... OriginalGriff - Professional Profile
Griff can fix that, invent the hard drive cat flap, where cats can go into your hard drive and mess with those cords

And cables for the dogs and goats to eat.
Please don't ask how I know.....

Yeah, tell me about it! I'm on my fourth day with the laptop away from the home office. I'm still being productive (despite the constant interruptions) but I really miss a full keyboard and twin 27'' monitors I have at home.

Lost my mouse wheel for a few days (needed a new mouse); productivity went to zero.

I am guessing you don't like wires?

Normally I prefer wired CAT5, but ... with the graphics card in there it's a bit cramped and I can get a WiFi card in the final available PCIe slot, but a network card is more problematic - it would block the airflow to the video card fans and that sounds like a bad idea ... 
It was no problem until the built in network adapter went down.

Sir: raise your hands and step away from the book of Christmas Cracker jokes ...

I do not know what those crackers are. Are they like fortune cookies for Christmas but without the zen?
And I do not get these posts from a book I did not knew existed. Are they suppose to be jokes? I do not know if it is my sense of humor that is not calibrated or those are bland to say the least.
Doing one liner jokes is an art that few can manage and most should avoid trying to do.
From the comments, is it safe to say that there is a bug on codeproject?
I can't see the link (says the site is not responding) but I assume it was appropriate.
