    Advice on building a new PC

    I am happy with 24" monitor (1080p) as the text are good size and for my software development its fine (for me). If I upgrade to 2K (27") then I will have to increase text size from 100% to 125% in Windows. Won't that reduce real estate space in desktop?

    Virtual PC in cloud

    I need a VDI as my products that needs to be run require Windows. What I have been asking is I want to go for server in Microsoft Azure as getting a windows server there is cheaper than in AWS. However should I go for 6 VMS or 1 server with 6 user accounts and each user getting access to 1 account.
