When doing an online draft... (1 Viewer)

Probably a dumb question, but...

Been using the DD for several years now and the VBD custom cheetsheets before that, but have always had live and in person drafts. For the first time this year, we are running our draft online because a few people cannot physically attend. So I am wondering if people use the DD and flip-flop windows when drafting online or if you print a VBD cheetsheet. It seems like a lot of work to flip back and forth, so I am wondering if I am just overthinking.

i use dual monitors. works wonderful. start using two monitors and you will never regret it.

The dual monitors works perfectly, but I've done a lot of online drafts just flipping back and forth between the DD window and the draft room window. It's not nearly as bad as what you might think.

Borrow a laptop from work. I usually have 2 PC's going because as commissioner I need to be able to step in and make a pick if somebody has a problem.

I do the same. Minimizing/maximizing windows isn't very hard. If I recall it takes 1 mouse click, but I might have to bust out my video professor DVD to check.

I know switching windows is 1 click and not hard, but my problem is that doing that with two things running sometimes locks up my computer. That my friends would be BRUTAL!
