FYI - You can use (x-display-pixel-width) to pick up the `1280' value
automatically, so it is correct regardless of the current display. In the case
of yours, it will be 1280.

So you could, if you wanted, use:
(setq second-frame-alist
      `((top . 0)
        (left . ,(x-display-pixel-width))
        (width . 150)
        ...
