Kind of like how I got my wifes vehicle stuck,

down into a ditch or, up over a mountain of snow?

While I am not scared of death, I am not a fan of my aging body - looks don't matter to me, but function does and the degradation is not appealing. It is something I have to accept of course, but it isn't fun to look in the mirror and see how far it has slid.

Any tips?

Did you just get a monitor/TV with two HDMI slots?

Yep - these have two HDMI on them. So, I have a dock for the work laptop and the two extra HDMIs plug into that. Then with both computers on, I can just switch the source from 1 to 2. It is much easier than what I was doing.

I am happy having a desktop for now I think - I would miss it. The other thing is, I can have the desktop off the table, but a laptop would be on it. Having two laptops takes up more room, and I would require two different docks as well.
