If you’re going to be a day trader than using a trading computer that runs multiple monitors is an absolute must.

Personally, I don’t trade stocks.  However, I have friends that are day traders and they all use a trading computer that runs multiple monitors.  I asked them to explain to me some of the advantage of using a multiple screen computer.  They said that the biggest advantage is being able to watch multiple charts and graphs and trade in split second when they realize that they have an advantage and can make money.  Many of these guys have six figure salaries, so it I take their words for gold.  They seem accurate and therefore I believe them.

If you have thought about getting a trading computer that runs multiple monitors, but you were not really sure if it was right for you, I can tell you one thing.  You will see an advantage once you start using your new trading computer with multiple monitors.  It will be one of the top decisions that you can make for your business this year and you will not regret and will wonder why you didn’t do it sooner.

reasons why a PC for Gaming is better than both a normal PC and a gaming system like Xbox or Playstation.  It is important to realize of course that everyone has a slightly different situation so for some it might actually be easier go with one of the above mentioned solutions.  However, for me, a PC for gaming has been one of the best decisions that I could have made.   It is been a real treat to play FPS (First Person Shooter) games using a mouse and keyboard, as opposed to a controller (which can be rather tricky at times.)  I’ve also noticed better speed and slightly more reliable hardware.  Sure, Microsoft makes good products, but being able to hand select the components that I wanted to use was a real plus.

Another advantage to having a PC for gaming is being able to run multiple monitors and create an really neat 3D feeling environment by using a horseshoe shaped continuous setup.  It is an awesome advantage that many of my opponents online don’t have and has led to increased winning when I do play.

There are some things that you need to consider though, before you run out and buy a PC for gaming.  The number one issue can be the cost.  If you end up doing what I did and buy the absolute best components then you can easily wind up paying considerably more than you would for even an above average computer.  This is a big deterrent for some people that simply can’t afford to piece the machine that they want to buy.  Another disadvantage is that you may not have the knowledge to put the computer together yourself.  If this is the case then you do have options, but it will end up costing you a bit more money- which again tends to be a big deterrent for people considering buying a PC for gaming.

So where can you find experts willing to help you piece together the perfect PC for gaming.   Well online there are quite a few options.  A good place to start is on gaming forums.  There are a lot of forums online that have experts on this type of stuff.  Talking with these guys can be a great way to figure out not only what you need to buy, but if a gaming computer is right for you in the first place.  Of course you should beware that sometimes the guys on these forums can also be a little snooty and may not be all that willing to help.  Definitely consider using the search function within each individual help before making new threads, as making new threads in a great way to get flamed and not given any good information.

Another option, albeit a slightly more expensive option (so it is definitely not for everyone), is to use a company such as multi-monitors.com to help build your PC for gaming.  The guys at multi-monitors.com tend to really know their stuff.  The advantage to going with them is that you’re going to be able to customize your computer to the exact specifications that you want.  This is a huge advantage over having to go to newegg.com and guess at which parts might work best.  It will save you hours and hours of research that you would need to do to put together the perfect system.  This is the option that I recommend, unless you are a little more technical and computer savy.

there is a serious advantage to multitasking applications on separate monitors.  It is more than just helpful, using multiple monitors is a time saving tool that will allow you do things that you never dreamed possible.  Multitasking applications on separate monitors is an amazing way to increase your revenues and reduce time wasted while working.  More and more people are moving to a setup that allows for easier multitasking by using a multiple monitor setup.  In fact, if you’re not moving towards this type of system, then quite frankly, you are behind the times.  Most people don’t realize just how much time is actually wasted because they aren’t currently multitasking applications on separate monitors. It is such a shame too, because as the economy worsens companies could be saving more money by using multiple screens.

I was recently visiting a friend and talking about the advantages of being able to use multitasking applications on separate monitors.  It was quite incredible how he mentioned that he was using a very similar concept.  He had a 4 monitor computer and with each monitor that he had set up, he ran a different application.   My friend and his employees had learned that multitasking applications on separate monitors was a huge advantage for him and his business.  He was able to help his business grow by reducing waste and increasing efficiency within his office.  This has been a huge perk for his business.

Recently, while at a conference in Las Vegas for FOREX traders, I talked with a guy that, like my friend which I have already mentioned above, used an 8 monitor computer in a very similar fashion.  He was using the 8 monitor computer for multitasking applications on separate monitors.  This was a huge perk, just like my friend, for his business as well.  Each monitor contained a specific application which was really helpful for him.  He said that since he started using a multi-monitor setup to multitask applications on separate monitors that he had noticed a sharp increase in the amount of productivity that he was able to do.  It has been a huge success for him. And I know that he’s extremely thrilled that he was able to start multitasking applications on separate monitors, much like the way he was able to understand the charts and graphs that he must read faster and more efficiently.

There are several ways that you can start employing this technology within your business, and the sooner that you start doing so the happier you’re going to be.  So what does it take to get a multiple monitor setup within your business?  Well the answer is very simple actually, and does not require as much technical information as you might originally.  It does, however, require you to consider what is that you are actually trying to accomplish and failure to do this will result in a poor piece of machinery that does not do what you would like for it to do.  So, for example, if you are a FOREX trader, you’ll probably want a minimum of 4 screens.  You can accomplish this in several ways, the easiest of which is purchase a computer that is already setup for at least 4 monitors.  You can imagine that you need a machine that is equipped to process quite a bit of data and do so fairly efficiently.  So first and foremost you need a powerful processor such as the Intel i5 or i7.  Next you need to consider how much RAM (memory) you’re going to need.  Once you know this then the next question would be, what video card you want to use.  You want to use powerful and efficient graphics cards that will be able to handle a lot of data.  You also want to have graphics cards that have at least 2 outputs each, as this will make it much to setup your multiple monitor computer.

Another way that you can get a multi-screen computer is to order from a company that specializes in multiple monitor computers.  There are a number of these companies around, but the best one is a company that’s called multi-monitors.com.  You can browse their website if you are curious about what they provide, but an even better option is to give them a call and talk about how you’re to be multitasking applications on separate monitors.  Ordering this way will result in a better machine that more closely matches your needs.  I mean let’s face it, you don’t know what you’re doing when it comes to computers.  You should consult with an expert before you make a purchase.  Now it is true that you will pay a bit of a premium to do so, but hey, it will be worth it in the long run and you’ll be really happy that you went with a company that know what they are doing.

You’ll also have to figure out what type of stand you want to use.  There are several ways that you can setup your computers for multitasking applications on separate monitors.  The most common ways tend to be the horizontal setup and the quad setup (for a 4-monitor computer.)  Either will work fine, but it really depends on the amount of space that you have available and how many monitors you think that you’ll need to start multitasking applications on separate monitors.  Don’t worry, if you’re not sure what to buy, you can always talk with the guys at multi-monitors.com about this as well.  They are experts and will know what to tell you to buy.

In summary, if you are considering multitasking applications on separate monitors you’re making a wise decision.  It is a decision that will benefit you and your business and result in greater growth, increased productivity and less time wasted at work.  Your employees will love you and your clients will love you even more.  But before you start multitasking applications on separate monitors you need to make sure you are getting the right multiple monitor computer system for your office.  For this reason it is highly recommended that before you make any purchase, you talk with someone that understands your goals and someone that can help you pick the right system.  Don’t think that just because you’re getting a multi-screen system that it is right for you.   Find an expert and make sure you get exactly what you need to  begin multitasking applications on separate monitors.

honest, because unless you have started researching and using multi-screen setups then you are behind the times.  Have multi-screen setups are huge for business both large and small and your business should also be included in this as well.  If you are looking for a strong way to grow your business, then having a multi-screen setup could be it.  Are you ready to learn the advantages of having a multi-screen setup?  There are lots of advantages to having a multiple screen setup, but I’ll just list a couple for you.

When people think about multi-screen setups, they tend to think that they are only good for a few different types of professionals.  For example, people tend to think that multi-screen setups are relevant if you are a day trader, or if you are into other fields like this that are similar.  But the fact of the matter is that people all different types have started to use multiple monitor computers.  Even professions such as teacher, doctor and lawyer can find advantages to using a multiple monitor setup.  There is a serious advantage to those that are willing to embrace this new technology and use it to their advantage to make sure that they have a clear cut edge in the market.

Why do we keep hearing about a multiple monitor display, not only in the workplace, but in many other places as well?  It seems like everywhere I go, either on the internet or even watching TV, people having been switching over to a multiple monitor display.  It is a trend that’s growing, according to several popular tech websites and magazines.  It is growing so fast that I started to research why companies have started gearing toward using multiple monitor display as opposed to using a single monitor display like they use to use back in the day.  As it turns out, the answer was pretty simple.  Companies have discovered that using multiple monitors have increased their workplace productivity, which in the long run have allowed them to grow in ways that they never realized would be possible.

Google is great example of a company that encourages the use of multiple monitor display in their workplace.  They seem to really know what is going to make a company tick and this has lead to better workplace environment.  They know that having employees use a multiple monitor displace instead of the traditional single monitor display may lead to better results.  When you’re a big company like Google, everything you do tends to trend towards how can you grow and how can you make things better in the workplace.  For them, it happens to be using a multiple monitor displace in the office place. For your company, using a multiple monitor display could be the key to increasing your productivity as well, which in the end will result in several very important things.  Your profits will grow and your employees will likely be happier.  After all, an employee that feels like he or she is working less will feel better about the job that they are doing.

and furious.  You might be asking yourself, why would a multiple monitor computer benefit my company?  Well I’ll tell you- being able to multi-task is an incredibly valuable trait.  Having multiple monitor computers can help someone that may not be the best at multi-tasking be better at it.  It is a very important skill to have.  So you should learn how to multi-task with multiple monitor computers so that you are a better and more productive worker, which will in the end result in high net revenue for your company.

Some very powerful companies have started using multi-monitor computers and for good reason.  Companies are finding out when employee are able to bounce back and forth between computer programs easier tend to get more done during the day.  The result is higher productivity for the workplace and the end result is increased profits.  Most companies aren’t even aware that they are wasting money because their employees are (silently) spending time moving back and forth between applications, when they could actually have these programs open and ready to use.  This would mean that they would be more productive- that less time would be wasted.

As business owners start to catch on to this trend I think that we are going to see an interesting trend in work.  Multiple monitor computers mean that more work can be done in less time.  As is such, this could actually mean a shortening of the work week, something that much of Europe already has.   Because countries like France refuse to allow more than 30 hours per week for full time workers, they could also benefit greatly from using multiple monitor computers.  This should be a trend that catches on with the rest of Europe as well.  Swedes aren’t particularly known for their work ethic, but if they were using multiple monitor computers, perhaps we’d see a shift.  Perhaps we’d see more work done and Sweden could turn into one of the more productive countries in Europe.  They already have IKEA, why not make them a better nation by using simple multiple monitor computers?

surprise you; most computers if you configure them correctly and upgrade with the appropriate hardware.  It’s actually much easier than you probably realize and you can even make your computer do it as well.  However, trying to make your computer connect up to six displays may not always be the most efficient way to do things.  The best idea is usually to build a special computer that is configured to connect up to six displays.   Since most of don’t really understand how all of the components work within a computer system, the idea is then to find a professional company that can help us arrange the computer system so that it will best meet our needs.  We touch on this more below, but first I should provide a couple of warnings.  Using a computer to connect up to six displays may be more or less power than you actually need.  Some people prefer to use a 2 monitor computer, or 3,4, even 5 monitors as opposed to connecting up to six displays.  Why you ask?  Well it really depends on the type of work that you are trying to do.

So where do you buy a computer that can connect up to six displays.  Honestly the best company out there right now is a company called multi-monitors.com.  They have a long history of expertise in the field and can help you make the best decisions when picking out the components that make up your computer that will connect up to six displays.  They are so trust worth that even the US Navy and other branches of the military use their computers on their battleships.  That’s pretty spectacular to think about- you could use the same computer system that provides defense for the most powerful nation in the world.

If you are interested in buying a multiple monitor computer that can connect up to six displays, the easiest way to do so is to purchase a machine from a company.  You can piece the computer together yourself, but without the proper expertise, you may wind up with an inefficient machine that does not do what you want it to do.

displays from the past.  If you haven’t upgraded, then you are behind the times.  Fortunately for you it’s actually easier than you think to do so.  There are a number of awesome companies (which we will get to in a minute) that can help you design the absolutely perfect trade show display.

Typically speaking, when companies seek to replace trade show display, they intend to set up a multiple monitor computer that use anywhere from 2 to 8 monitors (and for some professionals it can be even more.)  To run this many computer monitors you need to have a special computer that’s built specifically for running multiple monitors.  Often times they include using multiple graphics cards, have high-end processor, an abundance of RAM and a special cooling system that prevents the computer from getting too hot.

If you intend to use this type of display, then the best way to have the system put together is by contacting professionals that specialize in multi-monitor Wall displays.  One of the best companies around is a company called multi-monitors.com.  They’ve been in the business for a long time and understand the ends and outs of what a multiple monitor computer system should look like, how it should function, and how to avoid problems when you replace trade show display.

If you are doing trade shows, then it’s time you replace trade show display.  Before you go out and try to do this on your own, you need to consult with a professional.  You also need to know how many monitors you’d like to use.  If you’re not sure about this, then consulting with a professional may be the easiest way to determine what the best course of action will be.  Don’t try to go it alone when you replace trade show display or you may end up with an expensive piece of machinery that does not do what you want it to do.

people on a CD that contained all the information that my grandmother’s old encyclopedia set contained.  It was quite awesome at the time.  Since then, the computer has become center for media.  Because of these requirements you have probably found that you need a multi media computer with multiple monitors.  Because of this, I recommend that you take a look at a few of the advantages.  Below I am doing to discuss why having a multi media computer will be a huge advantage to you and your family, and how you can use it to your benefit.

One major advantage of using a multi media computer is that you are able to generate images, music and more without having to worry about the computer lagging.  There is absolutely nothing more frustrating than trying to watch a movie and having to worry about the screen lagging.  For example, have you ever tried to watch something where the voice didn’t quite line up with the video?  It is absolutely frustrating as heck!

Another problem that having a multi media computer can help with is for those that do video or image editing.  Having a multi media computer can help reduce lag time with software such as Photoshop.  It can be extremely frustrating to try and edit film or images have to worry about the computer freezing.  In fact, if it happens at the wrong time, before you have saved recent edits, it could potentially cost you hours of work.  It is extremely important to make sure that you have equipment that is up to speed in this event.

And of course, it is also important for those music editors out there that record using tools like Pro Tools.  These computer programs can be extremely demanding on your computer equipment.  Again, if you are working on a recording and the computer that you are using can’t handle the demand, then these tools become extremely important and could mean the difference between losing hours (or any extremely bad circumstances days) of work.  Having a multi media computer can help you avoid these problems.  You can also rely on a multi media computer for extremely fast relay, meaning you won’t have gaps between pushing recording and when the computer and software actually begin to perform their required functions.  This can mean life or death of a song, when you are trying to record.  But as with other industries, it is not just about having a multi media computer, it is about having the right multi media computer.

You definitely don’t want to just purchase any kind of computer.  You need to be able to purchase the right computer for whatever your needs are.  That’s where companies like multi-monitors.com can come in very handy.  They are experts in the field and can help you pick out the right components, which will save you money and mean better performance.  It is a win-win situation.

able to do most of this on his own, without any type of formal education.  This is a great example of how anyone in the US can become successful through hard work and dedication.  One of the secrets that I was told help him achieve major success was the use of a multi-monitor PC.  Unlike many of his competitors he is able to use a multi-monitor pc to PC to help balance his productivity while he is working.

Using a multi-monitor PC has a lot of clear advantages.  For my friend it is a better balance of productivity, but for many it is just about having to the freedom to multi-task on their PC without having to worry about lack of space.  The extra desktop turns into a huge advantage at times, especially for those that tend to run several computer programs at once.  Of course this is obvious for people like day traders and other types of stock brokers, but it is also true for those working outside of the financial sector.  In fact, there are a lot of fields where using a multiple monitor computer could be beneficial.

One field that finds multi-monitor PCs extremely useful is engineers, designers and architects that use programs like AutoCAD.  It is not uncommon for AutoCAD developers to actually have several of these awesome multi-monitor PCs setup so that they can work on multiple projects.  Multiple monitor PCs are great for engineers because they use are typically faster than the average computer (because they use some pretty premium parts!

Another field that uses a multi-monitor PC is the medical field.  They use them in a variety of ways too!  In recent years surgeons have actually started doing surgery via proxy using robotic tools.  This is cool because you hire the best surgeon in the country even if you live thousands of miles away.  These surgeons often use special setups that allow them to better picture what is going on with their patient.  They may have a 6 monitor computer that allows them to see the surgery site, the vital states of the patient and the environment of the proxy operating room.  It is quite amazing technology.

Teachers, particularly those in higher education settings, such as colleges and universities, have started to use a multi-monitor PC as well.  They’ve found that using a multiple monitor computer can help them better organize lectures and information that they are trying to pass along to their students.  Many of my instructors used as many as three screens to help convey information.  One may have been notes, the other details such as charts or graphs, and yet a third screen with detailed pictures.  This was extremely helpful for me as a student.  I found that having multiple monitors gave me more time to focus on getting the information down while the instructor could move through the lecture more easily.

As we’ve discussed, there are quite a few professions and uses for multi-monitor PCs.  Sometimes the use in the profession varies greatly, but the idea is typically always the same:  to make work more efficient while reducing wasted time.  In other words, we use multiple monitors because we want our work to be easier and done more effectively.  Fortunately multiple monitor PCs allow us to do this just by their nature.  It is a really cool concept and most people find multi-screen PCs a great additional resource when they are trying to think of ways to improve their business.  If you were unsure about purchasing a multiple monitor PC, now is the time to do it.  You can get a high-end multi-monitor PC at multi-monitors.com that will meet your needs!

Pretending that your old single monitor computer is just as good as a new dual screen computer is not, going to make it work any more efficiently.  It will, however, make you feel kind of dumb when you realize that using a dual screen computer could be saving your company literally thousands (if not more) of dollars a year.  Most industries have started to pick up on this growing trend, but not everyone has quite yet.  This means that you can save a small fortune for your business by simply doing something that everyone else in the industry already seems to be to doing anyways, using a dual screen computer to increase productivity and profits for their company.

And while we’re on the subject, let’s talk about some of the specifics of what makes a high quality dual screen computer, as opposed to a cheap piece of junk that you might find at a bargain store like Best Buy or Wal-Mart.  A quality dual monitor computer is going to have the best possible parts that you can find because you want quality to last.  Unlike when you purchase a bulk computer from a big store, if you use a company like multi-monitors.com you will be able to talk with someone that can customize your computer to exactly your needs.  This is great and will make sure that you’re only spending money on the parts that you need, not the junk in between.

Here’s the deal.  When you setup a normal multiple monitor computer, you typically use several graphics or video cards, so that you have the processing power (think GPU) and the outputs available for multiple screens.  The problem is that with a laptop computer you are far more limited on what you’re able to install.  That’s why you must understand what is actually required to make this happen.  Not everyone knows that there is actually a relatively simple solution to the problem of how to setup a triple monitor laptop and I’m going to share it with you.

The easiest and most cost efficient way to setup up a triple monitor laptop is to use an adapter.  There are a few that are available, but the most reliable and the one that most people use for their triple monitor laptop is made by a company called Maxtor.  They make a product called the TripleHead2Go- this is a basically a three way laptop output that can be plugged directly into your computer and extend your desktop on to as many as 3 different or additional screens.  The setup for the TripleHead2Go and triple monitor laptop

http://dual-monitors.org/images/Multiple-Monitor-Computer-Display-Array-Bundle-Superpc-6.JPG

is actually relatively simple- you can simply plug it in and then configure everything within your Windows control panel.  The whole process took me roughly 5 minutes to figure out and it has been working great ever since.

The advantage to having a triple monitor laptop is great.  Once a month (or thereabouts) when I travel, I can just unplug my laptop and take it with me to where ever I’m going, but on normal non-traveling days it works just as well as my original multiple monitor computer.  I’m no longer spending a lot of time transferring files back and forth and I don’t have to worry nearly as much about corrupt files either.  It has relieved a lot of stress associated with traveling and I really appreciate how having a triple monitor laptop has been a huge benefit to my business.

Now typically the number one question is, “where do I get a Maxtor TripleHead2Go, I don’t see them at Best Buy or Wal-Mart.”  You are correct, using a TripleHead2Go for your triple monitor laptop is not something that most companies want you to know about.  The easiest and best way to buy an adapter like the TripleHead2Go is to resource a company like multi-monitors.com.  They have an awesome selection of multiple monitor products and know more about setting up your triple monitor laptop than any other company on the web.  You won’t be disappointed with your decision to source an expert on this matter.

designed to have better than average graphics capabilities, processing speed and overall performance.  There are a number of companies that specialize in gaming computers, but many gamers tend to be DYIers (Do It Yourselfers) and will build the computer either based on components they pick, or as a result of picking components from a website, or forum.  Having a gaming computer can really give you a leg up if you are trying to place online competitively.  As slow refresh rates and worthless processing capabilities tend to mean poor gaming performance.  While there is no perfect answer for those that would like to have a perfect computer, gaming computers may be the closest that you’ll.

So what’s the best solution:  well in my humble opinion- if you’re looking for a gaming computer, it is best to consult with professionals.  There are quite a few companies out there that provide top notch computers for gaming.  Of those, my absolute favorite is multi-monitors.com.  They have, overall, the best prices, customer service and a long stand record of extremely high quality parts.  You can shop around; by I guarantee that if you go with any other company you’re going to end up paying a bit more and you’re actually going to end up with less of a computer.

Gaming computers are a must for any serious gamer.  If you’re shopping around, make sure you check out multi-monitors.com.

Second, they all trained themselves- and what I mean by that is that none of these guys have a traditional education in finance, they are all self-taught and did so (for the most part) by reading some books and watch what other traders were doing.  It may sound silly to most of us, because we are taught from a young age that education is most important thing we can acquire, but these guys don’t think like the rest of the hive.  And apparently taking this approach has work because all of them have a network over one million dollars, so are even into 8 digits net worth, crazy- I know!  The other thing that all of these guys have in common is that they all use multiscreen trading monitors for their day-to-day activities.  Regardless of what type of trading they are into, stocks, bonds or FOREX (currency exchange), they all have a somewhat elaborate setup that includes multiple trading screens.

Most of these guys, as mentioned, prefer to learn for themselves as opposed to being told what to use and what to buy.  However, they are a somewhat close knit group and will often times seek the advice of the members of their small group.  I think this goes a long way to explain why these guys are using multiple monitor computers.  Once one of them got multiscreen trading monitors, the idea spread within the group pretty quickly and they all decided to jump in and getting multiple monitors as well.  It is an interesting idea to say the least, but more on that in a minute.

The first guy to get multiple monitors within the group is a FOREX trader that prefers to remain anonymous, I will call him Rob.  Rob has been trading currency for almost 10 years now and he’s quite good at what he does.  You know how I mention a few of these guys had 8 digits of net worth?  Well Rob is that guy.  He’s sharp as a tack and quick to make smart decisions when it relates to his business.   He knows how to view the market and how to manipulate trades to his advantage 98 percent of the time.  Like I said, he’s very good at what he does.  He started using multiscreen trading monitors back in 2006 when he decided that having multiple computers running at the same time was inefficient given the technology for powerful processors had increased, but running a single monitor didn’t give him enough desktop space.  He actually missed a few trades because he was fumbling between charts and graphs and didn’t see a tell-tell sign that he should buy selling.  If there is one thing that Rob absolutely hates to do it is lose money.  He finds that to be extremely frustrating.

Soon after he missed the trade that cost him thousands of dollars he started looking for a better solution to the system he had setup, which included 6 single monitor computer systems all running independently.  This didn’t make sense to him.  He noticed a small company- multi-monitors.com selling some super pcs on popular web auction site and thought it looked interesting.  He was smart enough to know a good deal when he saw one and snatched up a 6 monitor computer from those guys.  It was the perfect multiscreen trading computer that he had been looking for all this time.  It was powerful enough to run all of his programs and much easier to use and more efficient than running 6 separate single monitor computers.

The results of using his powerful new multiscreen trading monitors were fantastic.  He was finally able to trade more efficiently and with fewer problems.  He would no longer have to worry about missing trades because he was fumbling between programs.

Word quickly spread among his peer group that he was using multiscreen trading monitors and how much better this was than using a single monitor computer system.  Next to pick up on this trend of multiple screen computers was day stock trader named James (we’ll leave his last name out to avoid any problem- I’m not sure if he would want to be bothered.)  James was one of the early adopters of the internet as a mechanism to facilitate stock trading.  He participated in BBS (bulletin board systems) throughout the 1980’s, long before most people had any clue what the internet was.  His small group of trader friends used Tandy computers that ran an old school version of DOS and connected to each other through the phone line.  It was pretty high tech stuff at the time.

James was talking with Rob one day when he realized that Rob was onto something new and great with multiscreen trading monitors.  He started asking question, mostly concerning productivity and ease of use.  According to Rob, it wasn’t as complex as it sounded.  He gave James the phone number for the guys over at multi-monitors.com and James gave them a call!  Immediately he was impressed with their knowledge on the subject of multiscreen trading monitors.  They seemed to be experts in the field.  He decided that rather than build a computer on his own (copying Rob’s setup of course) that he would simply let the guys over at multi-monitors.com build him a computer instead.  As it turned out, it was a smart decision and he was able to grow his company and his business using a multiple monitor computer system.

If you’ve been wondering if multiple monitors would be right for your business, take my advice and the advice of my friends and try and start using multiscreen trading monitors.  Sure it costs a small amount upfront to get everything setup, but once you do- you’ll be very happy with the end result.  Your profits will soar and your employees will be happier.  Multiscreen trading monitors will be a boon for your business.

stands.  There are so many cool options that most people are not aware of when they go to purchase an array stand.  Of course, some of the options can end up being a little bit more expensive, but depending on what you are using your multiple monitor computer set up for, you should at least take some of the various options into account before making a decision.  And this is one of those decisions that should be made based on need, not cost (within reason.)  Choosing the correct array stand can really help with your productivity and usage overall.

So what types of multiple monitor stands are there?  Well the two main types of stands are the horizontal stand and the vertical stand.  In addition you have the quad and hex stands that are a combo of both types.  Let’s start with the horizontal stand since it is the most popular.  Horizontal array stands line up monitors side by side, usually 3-4 in a row.  This tends to be a favorite array stand and configuration because it is very natural feeling.  Sometimes the shape will vary to make the monitor form almost a horseshoe shape.  This is helpful because it really creates a nice workflow from one monitor to the next.

The next type of configuration is the vertical array stand.  This looks like two monitors stacked on top of each other.  Primary users of this configuration tend to be day traders and FOREX investors.  They are good for additional monitoring space of charts and graphs; however, the average user tends to find this configuration a little more difficult to get use to.  I will say, however, that as far a space saving array of stands, this is probably one of the best.

In addition to the horizontal and vertical arrays you also have quad, hex and octo configurations for 6 and 8 monitor computers.  Typically used only by guys that run serious amounts of data these configurations take up a lot of space and use a ton of energy.  However, if you’re running many programs at once this array of stands is very convenient.

Hopefully this helps sum up the various array of stand for you.  There are lots of choices and you should take a number of things into consideration before actually making your purchase.  Price may be a small factor, but the bigger question is what is you going to use these for and how much space do you have.

of work they can accomplish in a day.  If you’re wondering why this is the case, well it is actually very simple.  When you have a multiple monitor computer system you will find that you spend significantly less time using having to juggle multiple applications that end up wasting a lot time.  The answer to this problem is to simply have an array of multiple monitors, and assign each monitor a specific task or program that it can run.  That way you will always know where that program is at and you won’t have to try and click tiny icons and guess which one will actually open the program you are looking for when you are clicking.  It is a pretty simple concept really.  You could save a lot of time each day by having to move between programs less and less.  Using multiple array computers can help you do that.

So where do you buy really high quality multiple monitor arrays?  Actually they aren’t as hard to find as you might think.  There are a couple of pretty well known companies on the web, but really there is only one trustworthy company out there.   It is called multi-monitors.com and they offer some of the best computers for multiple monitors out there.  The cool thing is that they are really nice as well, you can give them a call and they will break down what you need based on what you say your requirements are going to be.  For example, if you are a day trader and need 5 or six different monitors, then multi-monitors.com can build you the perfect machine that has at least that many monitors.

There are a lot of people these days that are moving to multiple array computers because they offer a chance to improve your workplace productivity while reducing your in house waste.  Using a multiple monitor computer will save your company a small fortune in time and effort and the really brilliant part of it is that it is actually very simple to do.  You don’t need a fortune to set up multiple computer arrays and you’ll actually be very happy that you did in the long run.  Using a computer system that matches the needs of your business is easy if you know who to contact (psst…multi-monitors.com.)  Making the move to multiple monitor computers will be the smartest thing you could ever do for your business.

power in store advertising efforts.   It has proven to be an effective way to advertise both specials and in store promos, without the cost of expensive (and disposable) signage, that often times is just ignored anyways.  In fact, more and more businesses have been moving to this model because it proves to be an effective way to get a great advertising message across to an entirely new generation of people.   Advertising displays with monitors often include bright colors and changing landscape that allow for an awesome presentation.

Small business owners aren’t the only ones using advertising displays with monitors.  In fact, larger chain stores have been doing this for years.  I remember Best Buy in the circa 1998 had gigantic multi-monitor display on their back wall where they would play all kinds of cool videos, along with music and promos for the store.  At the time (when I was a humble employee) they played popular music videos, along with promos for in store promotions in between.  But the great thing while only Best Buy could afford this type of advertising back in the mid 90’s, it is possible for every business small and large to afford a similar advertising display with monitors these days.  It is really opened the flood gates for how you can self promote within your own business.

screens that you use with a normal PC, there are just more of them.  It is a weird concept for people, but the type of computer you use won’t actually have much bearing on the type of monitor you use.  That said, if you can understand that multiple monitor computers can help bring your business to new levels of productivity then you probably already knew all of this.  And if you did, then you were probably already aware of the huge benefits to having multiple monitor screens.

So what is the deal with multiple monitor screens?  Well, simply put- you can use multiple monitor screens to increase the workflow for your business which will in the end increase your company profits and make a huge difference in your ability to run your business.  In this tough economic climate anything that you can do to help your business grow is going to be a win for your business.  Using something as simple a multiple monitor screens to help grow your business is an easy way to gain extra capital and cut your production costs.   All business types, both large and small, can benefit from having multiple monitor screens.

If you are looking for a way to grow your business despite the tough economic climate, then look no further than using multiple monitor screens in your office.  They are an excellent way to increase productivity and reduce wasted time and effort.  There have been many great articles written on how and why using a multiple monitor computer will benefit your business.  I will say, however, that buying the right multiple monitor computer is essential.  There are a handful of companies that specialize in multiple monitor computers, but my personal favorite company is a company called multi-monitors.com.  They use the highest quality parts and are known in the industry of multiple monitor screens as a leader.  They have a trusted name, which is why you should definitely take them into consideration if you are thinking about buying a multiple screen computer.  You won’t be disappointed with your decision to do so!

The first guy that I got in touch with invited me over to his office so he could show me what he was using and how it was beneficial. I thought this was pretty cool; I had to check it out. He was using a multiple monitor trading computer with 8 monitors- the largest video monitor array I had seen. Each screen, he explained, was assigned a particular function. He had email, a web browser, trading software, graphs and more. And instead of having to flip back and forth between each station, he could always glance up and see what was going on with any particular window. I thought this was pretty cool. I asked him about how he discovered the advantage of using a multiple monitor trading computer and he said that have been multiple studies done explaining why having multiple monitors are beneficial. He could remember who told him about multiple monitor trading computers exactly, but he was almost certain that it was after reading a case study that cited a large net profit that he decided to give it a try. He mentioned that he had other friends using multiple monitor setups as well. I asked if he would mind if I went and discussed these multiple monitor computers with them too and he said no problem. He set up a few appointments for me.
Apparently I had been living in a cave. After talking with several additional friends, I found out that using a multiple monitor trading computer is pretty much the main secret to success in the day trading business. I decided to try it out myself, so after hearing good things from several of the guys I talked with, I gave multi-monitors.com a call. Apparently they are the industry experts at all things multiple monitors, and multiple monitor trading computers are no exception.

Multiple monitor productivity means getting more done, period. There have been numerous case studies done that point out just how much work is wasted because employers fail to implement a multi-monitor strategy. And it’s just plain bizarre- the average employee loses a full week each year flipping back and forth between applications. That means thousands, even millions of dollars, for some companies. Why would you let your company waste money? Would you intentionally through money down the drain? NO!

You can find many solutions online, or even at retail shops, but ideally you want to consult with experts in the field. That’s why I recommend you check out multi-monitors.com.

So why would you want to multi-table? Doesn’t that increase your margin of error? Well the short answer is no. A focused and skilled player doesn’t rely on luck; they use skill and math to make solid decisions when they play poker. So let’s do some math, shall we? If you are a solid player and you expect roughly 20% ROI in tournaments or 4 big blinds in normal ring games that mean that you’ll only end up making $2-5 per hour. Now that might be fine if you live in India or the Philippians, but in the US that’s a fraction of minimum wage. You could up your stakes, but keep in mind that as you move up your stakes into better fields; you’ll end up making a lower return. So the key is using multiple monitors and playing many low limit games at once. While it may sound amazing to a beginner that there are guys that can play 10 or more tables at once, with a little skill and a multiple monitor computer, this really isn’t that difficult.

Multi-tabling with multiple monitors is simply playing more than one table at once. For the big guys it may be 2 or 4 heads up games, but for those just starting out the easiest type of game to multi-table is small tournaments, such as a $5 or $10 sit and go. Why is this easier than say a ring game? Well, with tournaments you generally don’t have to rely on reads and every little play as much. Sit and Go tournaments are much more about following the flow of the tournament and knowing when to push your chips around. And some more good news, nearly every poker site around will allow its players to multi-table with multiple monitors or just with a single monitor too.

So what kind of computer do you need if you want to multi-table with multiple monitors? Well obviously you need a system that’s going to be fast enough to handle all of your monitors and run the computer software. I suggest no less than a Pentium i5 and 4 gigabytes of RAM or memory. You also need a solid graphics card that can handle multiple monitors, such as an NVidia or an ATI- both of these companies are excellent and make graphics cards specifically for multiple monitor computers. You also need to make sure that you have high resolution monitors. There is nothing worse than trying to read cards on a low resolution monitor, so make sure you stick with 1080p.

If you can’t afford an expensive computer or graphics card you have some other options as well. Matrox makes an awesome product called the DualHead2Go and TripleHead2Go. This is an adapter that makes it possible to connect multiple monitors to a single computer with a USB output. This is an awesome choice for someone using a laptop that might not want to upgrade, or just someone who doesn’t want to do a hardware install on their computer. Either way, using the TripleHead2Go is an easy way to add 3 additional monitors to your laptop.

Next you need to consider what type of arrangement you want to set your monitors up in when you have your computer ready to go. There are several different types of arrangements that tend to work pretty well. First you have the horizontal or side-by-side arrangement. This works great for some people especially with 3 monitors or less. You can also setup a vertical arrangement or stacked- one monitor on top of the other. While there are those that prefer this arrangement, I don’t care for it. And then there are those that use a stand that stacks the monitors 2 or 3 high and 3 or 4 side by side. Depending on how many poker tables you plan on playing at once, this may be the best option for you. Regardless of what you decide to do, you will find that there are special stands for every type of arrangement you can imagine and even companies that will custom build and design your stand for you! This is exactly what some people need, and they can’t use one of the above mentioned arrangements for the multiple monitors for whatever reason. You can check out some pictures and hopefully get a feel for what you like.

If you’re not sure what you need, you always have the option of going with a company that specializes in multiple monitor computers (for poker players and otherwise.) One such company is multi-monitors.com. They are leaders in the multiple monitor field and can help you figure out exactly what you need to make your multi-tabling poker venture a success.

Hopefully this article was helpful and you now better understand what multi-tabling is and how you can master it and make more money at online poker. To be a success, having a multiple monitor computer is certainly a key to winning.
