yeah, it doesn't really work for me (and I don't fully understand
your
instructions - clicking on the green button zooms, no option to click
on
the left, but maybe that's a 'still on Mojave' problem). I'm also
using
Spaces in complicated but viable ways. If anyone creates a way to
have the
two screen halves be truly independent, I can get one huge monitor
(much
easier on the desk!)
cheers,

You can easily have two apps or windows iPad style. Click on the
green
traffic light button and choose the left side then click on another
window
for the right side.
You may care to look at an app called Magnet on the Mac App Store
which
allows for easy setting of window sizes just by dragging windows or
using a
shortcut key.

I'm not;)
The current Intel Mac mini will do three monitors (the m1 only does
two)
so I'm thinking that will become an Apple Silicon Model at some point
and
perhaps retain that. I assume a Mac Pro (hefty hole in the budget for
that)
will support at least three. What I'll have to do is look into how
much I
should use adaptors/hubs and how much I should just also trade up
monitors
to newer ones. I also have a USB 2 displaylink kit which
theoretically lets
me run another monitor (so eg an iMac M1 might support a second
monitor but
displaylink would give me the third). It needs a decent CPU - running
it on
my work Macbook Air kills the machine.
I don't need great monitors, it's all text, but I need a lot of room
(and
my eyesight is gradually failing so I often have them at lower
resolutions
than 'recommended'). Most of the time I'm writing in one, consulting
another and compiling/previewing output on the third. One buge
monitor
doesn't work, I spend all my time fixing window sizes (if only macOS
could
treat a large screen as two, subdivided, iPad style...)
PS one of the monitors, the one I'm reading this on, is the one I
bought
from you - vintage Apple display still going strong!

Just a thought, how are you going to connect three displays to a
MacBook
Pro with 2 USB-C ports?

As a misophone I'm fascinated at the prospect of a truly silent Mac.
John
Gruber has emphasised that even the 'with-fan' Macbook Pro is utterly
silent. But I need three monitors so the M1 Mac Mini is sadly not
going to
work, so am waiting for the big guns (iMac and Mac Pro) to update.

"...it isn’t making even a whisper of noise.
No Intel-based laptop with vaguely comparable performance to these
machines can possibly match that silence. If you care about noise,
the game
is already over."
You cannot believe how long I've waited to read that;)

Good point Tony, thanks.

Apart from the £300 premium you might consider that the Air has no
fan and
the mini does. Therefore the mini more resistant to thermal
throttling.
Depends on how important portability is for your needs.
