No. I'm pretty much useless without at least two screens. Four or five are better. I require a mouse and a classic IBM layout keyboard. Trying to work on a laptop is almost cruel and unusual punishment, and I cannot fathom how people manage with 13" miniature laptops that have displays one quarter of even one of my monitors.

My desktop tends to look a bit like the Pepe Silvio Always Sunny episode, with stuff spread everywhere and spatially arranged. It works beautifully, as long as the machine stays up; it's a little work to recreate the state if a Windows update or power outage forces a reboot.
