Portrait-oriented screens forever! Death to landscape philistines who taint and ruin our hobby with their carelessly casual "it's easier to use" rampant fanboyism of landscape screens! That's not what Gary wanted, that's not how we rolled in 1978, it's those video games and anime that poisoned your brains into thinking that portrait screens are inferior! Attica! ATTICA! DON'T TREAD ON ME!!!!

Aren't computer screens more close to landscape than portrait dimensions? :-O
They generally do, but some companies offer hardcore office work-oriented monitors with the ability to pivot the screen 90 degrees and switch to a portrait mode. It's super handy when working with stuff like narrow but tall spreadsheets or when your client sends you a 20-page long contract in a single continues JPG A4 format image.
I can't live without them anymore, heartily recommended, mine are from Dell.

I had one awhile back, I adored it.

I have a conundrum - I am going to Gen Con and plan to pick up my subscription at the show. I have also recently subbed to the accessories line.
My issue is that in addition to the landscape screen, I ALSO want the portrait style screen, and I like the offer to provide a free PDF for those that pre-order it who also have the accessories sub.
My issue is this: it doesn't appear that the portrait screen is available for pickup at Gen Con, and I am concerned that if I pre-order the portrait screen it will interfere with my current subscription and inadvertently hold the subscription items back from being picked up at Gen Con.
Any idea how to handle this?

Hello Feeroper,
It won't. When an item goes to the sidecart it lives there until it is ready to be shipped and there is a subscription order it can jump in to. Since it cannot be picked up at GenCon it will just continue to live in your sidecart instead of jumping into the GenCon order. Our system knows what can go to GenCon and shouldn't allow anything that can't be picked up there to hop into the order.

My screen came in, printed upside down....

I'm interested in picking up this as a PDF, but my big concern is what is on the inside. I typically game online so the players can't see what I have in front of me anyway. I typically use the GM screen so I don't have to sort through a PDF or the book to find a fact. If the data on the inside of this screen isn't what I will be using during play then I don't think I should squeeze it into the budget.
Could someone please extol its virtues in the form of a list of tables and sections included on the interior?
Thanks in advance for the help.

It has a bunch of useful information including Conditions, Exploration Activities, Basic Actions, Dying, Treating Wounds, Creature Identification, and a bunch more.

A bunch more being: Turns, Terrain, Cover, Hero Points, Skill Actions, DCs, Detecting Creatures, Falling Damage, breaking stuff, Travel Speed, Environmental Damage, XP Awards & Elite/Weak Adjustments.
I am very happy with what is on this screen.
