For me a nice monitor is a must. I cannot be productive on a laptop for more than an hour or two. It all feels so constricting.

You can get some real nice monitors for $30 from the thrift store. I'm looking at one on my desk right now :-)

It isn't quite the thriftstore, but the last 3 batches of monitors I have gotten were all surplus or off lease.

Something like https://www.newegg.com/dell-u2412m-24/p/N82E16824260047?&qui...

I paid AU$260 for 2560x1440 27” Kogan branded displays.

And have a second hand 1920x1080 22” either side of those.

Total 4 displays for under AU$1000

I highly recommend it.

I do have a work laptop but I never use it because I hate working on the small thing(I don't like laptops that much in general). But when I work from home I use my home computer as it's really powerful(much more so than my work desktop also) and i have dual 25" monitors.
