Vertical Monitor

I’ve decided to defend my use of having a monitor in the portrait configuration from all the haters out there. For those not in-the-know, the portrait configuration for your monitor effectively means you have it turned 90 degrees. It is excellent for some things (Outlook works well this way, web pages display better in many cases, I can see my patients’ entire angiograph without scrolling, etc) and horrible for others (flashier webpages don’t always work well, movies/TV only utilize ~1/3rd of the screen due to their aspect ratio). I can’t recommend it if you’re a one-monitor type of person, but if you’ve got two or three, consider giving it a shot to increase productivity, or at least to shake things up during quarantine.
