No. However, you will have some overlap, so if you are ok with overlap go for it.

How would you compare it to a 19" Stationary monitor with 1600x1200 resolution? I remember trying out 1600x1200 on my old monitor which was a 17" and it was all small and fuzzy.

looks like i am the lucky one.

i 4 table and its not at all too small, my eyes never hurt afterwards, and you have an extra 2-3" on the side for which to AIM with while playing if you like.

i have 5-6 tabled on this monitor several times and it is a little hectic, but can certainly be done.

other than that however, that laptop rocks. good pick.

it can also be hooked up to one or two 2001FP's, which is awesome as well.

I'm just getting used to the tinyness I used to play full screen (2 table) and sit 5 feet from my pc.

It's really cool, last night I played 3 tables and watched Arrested Development and Imed.

Thanks for the info fsuplayer, now I can go out and buy it [img]/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img]

IndieMatty, having big tables is comfortable sometimes, you can sit way back. But it isn't practical [img]/images/graemlins/frown.gif[/img] Unless you have a 50" plasma!
