4 tabling question (monitors)

[45suited]

Kind of a computer donk, so...

My question is: If I purchase a 17" flat screen LCD, can I get all 4 tables to display simultaneously without any overlap?

If I can, does anyone have any recommendations for 17" monitors? (Tiger Direct has a sale on a "Soyo" 17" for $159 and I didn't know if this is a good deal or if it is junk.) Thanks for your help.

The size is of secondary importance. The monitor needs to be able to support a resolution of 1600 * 1200 for 4 tabling w no overlap.

Thanks... Is there a monitor out there that you know of that is the most popular among multi-tablers for this purpose or do most people just accept overlap?

The Dell 2001FP is very popular but it will be ~ $400.

To get 1600x1200 resolution, I believe the smallest you can go is a 21" LCD screen, or a 19" CRT screen.

I must say that compaq v 720 is a good looking option. What would the cheapest flat panel 1600x1200 look like?

[TheTROLL]

It would look exactly like a Dell 2001FP, by virtue of actually being one.

Touche' troll, now where could i find one? I tried dell.com and amazon and pricewatch, and got nada.

I just based my answer to "there are some 17" CRT(s) tht support 16x12" dunno what others said /images/graemlins/smile.gif

Thanks for the link and to everyone who responded.

Great information!

In the world of LCD's:

1600x1200 = UXGA
1740(?)x1200 = WUXGA

all the others are worthless for four tabling, XGA, SXGA, etc. you need the U.
