In an effort to raise awareness of the productivity benefits of using more than one computer display, Ergotron (St. Paul, MN) is launching Dare2Dual to promote the efficiency and workflow advantages of using multiple displays with a Web page; it features productivity resources and links, a productivity Payback Calculator, and a light-hearted YouTube video.

With Ergotron's human-centered products — Neo-Flex Combo Lift Stand and the Neo-Flex Dual LCD Lift Stand — as the promotion's centerpiece, Dare2Dual will emphasize the role these products can play in creating a more efficient and healthy computer environment.

One product is the Neo-Flex Combo Lift Stand (MSRP $179), an affordable, one-of-a-kind stand that provides desktop computing comfort with laptop portability while improving productivity. It can combine with an external LCD, keyboard, and mouse to create an efficient dual-display configuration. With its five inches (13 cm) of in-tandem height adjustability, this stand enables quick positioning of both an LCD and notebook for maximum ergonomic comfort, promoting workspace wellness at the home or in the office.

Another product is the Neo-Flex Dual LCD Lift Stand (MSRP $149), a height-adjustable and affordable stand that improves productivity by creating an efficient multi-display configuration. Users can simultaneously lift LCD screens to proper height for greater ergonomic comfort.

Ergotron has integrated a Payback Calculator into its website: the Multi-display Payback Calculator illustrates how quickly an Ergotron dual display mount pays for itself. And the Dare2Dual Video: The Tester Guy helps demonstrate the usefulness of Ergotron's dual and multiple display products.

Ergonomics research over the past 20 years has consistently shown that workstations adjusted to fit the user can result in an 18 percent productivity increase — whether one uses a single- or multi-display configuration.
