However, when I plug in anywhere outside the network I have to change adapter settings to use DHCP, and then static when I come back to work. At work, we have DHCP assigning IPs otherwise. Is there...

    Desk you use for your 30" monitor?

    Ditto the monitor limit was probably just meant for CRT depth measurements. My T leg Galant holds my 21" CRT and a 170lb me without squeaking. The metal frame underneath really holds well. and The a-legs are significantly cheaper than the T legs-I opted for the T legs merely for looks.
