My current desk at work. Nothing much apart from the dock which is pretty awesome. I plug one cable, it charges, has a network connection and two monitors.

been thinking of doing a 3 screen setup like this at work. I am curious what purposes you use for each screen. Obvious that you use the vertical for code. But what do you tend to keep on the laptop screen and the other horizontal monitor?

I work centered on the two external monitors. I keep chat applications and calendar on the laptop, I generally have code or long pdfs on the vertical monitor and and the rest (browsing and editing applications) on the horizontal monitor. It's not really enforced, sometimes I move applications around, it all depends on which format fits best for the task.
