Not only is it lightweight, but it takes little more than a USB 3 cable to get it going. Most LCD monitors have an internal AC or external DC power supply. I first saw the HP EliteDisplay S140u 14-inch USB portable monitor at HP's workstation product launch event in September. It allows you to easily add a second screen to a Windows-based notebook in the field for post-production applications. The edit bay has two big advantages over mobile workstations: more CPU power and more screen real estate. While some modern, mobile workstations can drive multiple screens, the screens themselves haven't been very mobile until now. The dual-screen set-ups give me lots of room to lay out sequences and view my edits. Today, however, editors are expected to be more mobile, and clients want you editing on location, out of the edit bay. Ten years ago I worked on a documentary at the client's house using my 15-inch HP Pavilion Pentium laptop. It was an arduous task, especially when doing some effects sequences with 25 layers. Pretty much everyone in video production and post-production has spent a good part of their lives in edit bays powered by large, high-powered workstations. I have two edit bays, one using an HP Z820 with a 32-inch computer monitor and 24-inch HD video monitor and the other using a HP Z800 with a 24-inch computer monitor and a 15-inch HD video monitor, and a SD digitizing bay utilizing an HP xw8400 with a 19-inch computer monitor and 13-inch CRT.
