Actually, he's quiet amenable to getting me a new workstation.he really want's the 19 monitors to deploy to the general population of users rather than the 23's he's getting in now. He thinks that he can get me a brand new workstation sometime next week. And eventually I'll get a 2nd 23 monitor..

RE: The Duh Question of the Day 8/4/09
I have to agree, certainly the best money I have spent Probably ever! In theory I get unlimited corrective surgery too, but there is only so much they can laser out of your eye. The only downside id when the painkillers wear off in the middle of the night, and maybe the realisation of what it is your smelling during the actual op. Still all that said if I needed it I could go back more. I do sometimes get little a funny matrix/grid affect when looking at things at short range when the light is not very good - say when trying to make up a patch cable in my loft - that is kinda weird. Real benefit is being able to wear sunglasses in the summer, cycling glasses when I am out on my bike, not faffing about with glasses when putting on a motorcycle helmet, and not having your glasses mist up in the rain/get wet, etc and just being able to see when you get up in the morning (and not forgetting to have to take contacts your out when you go to bed after a beer t many). -Original Message- From: N Parr [mailto:npar...@mortonind.com] Sent: 05 August 2009 19:29 To: NT System Admin Issues Subject: RE: The Duh Question of the Day 8/4/09 Best Money I've spent it a long time.

No, I didn't drive, but being able to see the road signs on the way home added to the blurriness, if you catch my meaning. It's something I hadn't been able to do since the 5th grade. Yes, that was a long time ago, and as a relatively early adopter, it cost a lot of money. I've never regretted it, despite the fact that I needed reading glasses immediately thereafter.

Two words: protrait mode. I changed my 22 to portrait and have never looked back. PDF files, page at a time and readable. Websites, no scrolling to get to the bottom (or significantly less). Since most websites are aligned for 1024 horizontal resolution, you won't have to scroll left or right. And, I find I prefer a long screen than a wide screen when remoting into servers.

I prefer to shrink the scale on most docs and have _TWO_ side by side pages. Well, actually, that's a lie. I'm almost always bouncing between multiple windows, so when I'm editing I actually have a full height doc (@ 80%)on the right and then room on the left to get at other things (CMD windows, emails, etc...) With a decent resolution monitor, and ClearType enabled, there are very few cases where I find I need to use the Office Apps or a browser at 100% scale. I find 75-80% works well, and I can usually get a full page in there. Ditto for CMD windows I permanently crank the font down to a ~9 point(as well as go green-on-black) and can get a couple of 50-line tall windows rolling without sucking up all the screen real estate.

Re: The Duh Question of the Day 8/4/09
I got lasik done when I was 41. That was, uh, some number of years ago. I was seeing at distance - blurred a bit by the drops and the protective plastic lenses - on my way home. No, I didn't drive, but being able to see the road signs on the way home added to the blurriness, if you catch my meaning. It's something I hadn't been able to do since the 5th grade. Yes, that was a long time ago, and as a relatively early adopter, it cost a lot of money. I've never regretted it, despite the fact that I needed reading glasses immediately thereafter.

Yup, I'm probably a good candidate, eyesight for distance hasn't changed in several years and I only have a slight astigmatism. It's nice to hear from others that have had it done. I'm only considering it now because I'm starting to need reading glasses some, and I don't want bifocals. I've never had any kind of surgery, so the thought of something being pointed at my eyes and I am going to be semi aware of what is going on really freaks me out.

Yup, you are. Or a wus or is wimp the feminization of wus? I thought about Lasik but at my age, and the fact that since I live in a rural area the cost is higher, I'd never see a payback (other than no hassle). Also, no way I'd pay the money and still have to wear any kind of glasses. I'll just stick with my contacts. I was lucky enough to be able to adapt to bifocal contacts, too.

It's nice to hear from others that have had it done. I'm only considering it now because I'm starting to need reading glasses some, and I don't want bifocals. I've never had any kind of surgery, so the thought of something being pointed at my eyes and I am going to be semi aware of what is going on really freaks me out. I'm a wimp, I can't watch when I give blood or have to have blood drawn for a blood test, I have to look the other direction. On Wed, Aug 5, 2009 at 11:48 AM, Steven M.

The font color in most of the office applications is way to light for me to seeit's rather annoying and a co-worker who is the same age as I am did the same thing and he's complaining about the same thing, so I don't think it's just me. Why is the font color and size setup like that Microsoft? And now with this new monitor it's even worse... I've got an appt. next week for a preliminary exam for lasik eye surgery..

Apparently so. I attached the test to an earlier reply to your message here as well, and it was also swallowed. Odd.
