We all work in A4 format, a vertical oblong, and not just translators. Web pages are designed to scroll vertically, not horizontally.

Or have I just given away a multi-million euro patent idea…?

Hi Gary,

Don't worry, you haven't given away a golden patent idea There have been turnable monitors on the market for a while now, and I even worked with one.
Now I use a normal horizontal screen again..

The main problem I encountered when turning my screen to vertical is that I got literally pain in the neck because I had to look that fair high on the screen. It's easier to turn your head to the right and to the left than to look up and down for a whole day. I quickly switched back to horizontal again and neck is fine again. ▲ Collapse
