More than simple IT news!
Workshop We know that the majority of organisations that we survey have adopted server virtualisation to support their server consolidation activities, and are reaping benefits.
However, there is more to server virtualisation than simply supporting the consolidation of workloads onto a reduced set of servers. Moving beyond mere consolidation brings the potential of even greater advances – resource pooling, workload migration and high availability to name just a few. Underpinning the move to virtualisation is the hypervisor. Choosing one should be simple, or so you would have thought.
In our most recent poll, we asked our readers how many monitors they you use with their main computer. We have had almost 2,000 people vote on the poll and the numbers are in for us to go over and examine.
Among TweakTown readers and without too many surprises here, 57% use one monitor with their main computer setup. 32% use two monitors.
With the introduction of multi-screen gaming, we thought the following numbers would have been a little higher, but we can see that just 7% of our readers use three monitors and only 1% use four. We have some readers with certain monitor fetishes and 3% of them use five monitors or more!
