Usually just the active document I'm working on; my Oxford Superlex dictionary; the BBC radio channel that I happen to be listening to as I work (right now, R2 with Ken Bruce) and Google. My home page is IATE so I often forget that it's there... Skype pops up when someone tries to contact me but I don't count that since it runs in the background... But really, who's counting?. They say the less tabs you have open the better the PC works so I stick to these basic guidelines... | |

The document. A temp. Word document if I'm translating Powerpoint or Excel with Wordfast. A dictionary. The folder I started the document from. My e-mail program. An internet browser with 1-4 tabs with various dictionaries, google etc. depending on the project. My main accounting Excel spreadsheet unless it's a big job that I neither started nor will end today. It's a good thing I have 2GB of memory ... See more The document. A temp.

windows or tabs? | Aug 25, 2009 |
Usually only 3-4 windows (document, translation, online dictionaries (many tabs on 1 window), if necessary a terminologieliste) However, the dictionaries can be up to 11 tabs. And sometimes there are as many as 3 TL open. And then there's the across program that only runs on the PC, and which is the only program I run on the PC anyway... | | | To report site rules violations or get help, contact a site moderator: You can also contact site staff by submitting a support request » Poll: How many windows/tabs do you usually have open on your desktop while working?
