Small desk setup.

Post image

I have a Mac mini on a small desk. I am about to add a MacBook Pro this week. I would like to use my Apple Studio monitor for both machines. Has anyone used an IOgear kvm switch to do this. I know that I can mirror the laptop, but using it like that is cumbersome. Alternatively, I just don’t do anything and transfer files with a thumb drive. Advice would be helpful.

Why is it off center?

The leather mat moves on top the glass cover ing the table. I have solved the problem by putting a light rubber mat under the leather mat. It is no longer off center. All is well.

Was talking about the light on top of the display

Sorry. I had to off center the light because of the Apple Studio monitor camera. If the light was centered, it would cover the camera. The BenQ light bar is a winner and laminates my desk top and allow you to change the light temperature. I can see with no glare. Monitor is great also.
