    When I had two laptops on the same desk I used to have them both closed-up in the far corners of my desk for neatness. I used my logitech wireless keyboard and mouse to switch between the two. The novelty was the dual monitors. Because there were 2 display leads from each laptop into discreet sockets on each monitor, I could click the monitor buttons and choose one screen per laptop, or both screens for either. So I could "monitor" one laptop, whilst typing into the other. I did have to colour code my windows-desktops so as not to get mixed up :)

    Instead of buying a USB switch and pressning a button each time you want to switch between the laptop and the pc. You can instead use a program called Multiplicity where you can switch between the laptop and pc flaewlessly with a hotkey or swiping the mouse to the chosen side as if u were using a dual monitor setup. Multiplicity also transfers audio between the computers. It really is amazing

It's fantastic. Being able to copy and paste between all 3 machines is also invaluable. P.S. Any screen the mouse is on gets keyboard input as well

      Great setup. I'm trying to solve the same problem, and I had not considered using a multi-input TV with a remote to switch. I need to see of proper computer monitors can use a remote.
      Synergy is a great product, but I don't see how it makes sense on one monitor. Synergy allows you to mouse across multiple monitors that are attached to different computers. He is using one monitor. Synergy sends mouse clicks and keyboard taps to the computer that has the monitor with the cursor. One monitor? I suspect both computers would see the same keyboard and mouse at the same time.
      There is another use case where it falls apart. When I bring home my work laptop, I can't be on a VPN to work and my local network at the same time. Synergy must be able to reach both networks.

    Hey David, amazing content as usual! Quick question - does the weight of your huge screen exert so much pressure on that particular point of the table top & cause it to warp over time? I know there's a metal brace somewhere underneath, but I'm sure it's somewhere further away from that point you mounted the monitor arm. Does this make sense? 😅 I use a monitor arm (for 9kg ultrawide) on those cheap Ikea tops & the table got warped out of shape badly 🤣

      @@alexandralefish4236 tv monitors and pc monitors are not designed for either close or far range , the only reason that they say that is because the pixel density for images is not a factor when far range on tvs but it is not because they are designed for distance but only to explain why resolution is ok in ceratin distances and all monitors are the exact same to your eyes they all need calibration with a color and image calibrator, no matter what screen weather it is small or big you destroy your eyes if not calibrated.

    His set up: you only see this in TV

    - gaming wired mouse with no bungee( I use some heavy book instead)
    -No external display ( bc im broke af ) I use an empty fruit casket instead to elevate the laptop and as a cool pad
    -I have a budget keyboard I put on my lap when playing (as there's no space for it on the table)
    And lastly and most importantly I use a towel to cover my set up after finishing using it so it doesn't get dusty

      Still have them. I actually switched my speakers shortly after this video. Couldn't stand the tin sound from these tiny speakers. Wasn't worth the space savings (which was the original reason I popped the edifer back in). Still loving my large 4K monitor so the dell is on backup right now.

      @PWingert1966 Před 6 lety

      I tried my LG6300 and the edges are curved and distorted and the bottom half of the task bar is missing. Couldn't fix it playing with settings. I opted instead to go with 2 Dell 2717H monitors at a good price. I think it may be related to how the XPS 13 deals with external video. and 16:9 aspect ratio is not the same as the internal screen, maybe? It works fine with my insignia 32" in game mode though. so Part of it is an LG issue. Not worth my time to fiddle with it. I know the LG is not in 1080 mode and thinks the signal is a 4K signal it is receiving which may have something to do with the XPS 13 seeing a 4K monitor (The machine is not a 4k machine its the XPS 13 i5 with 1080 sacreen).
