simulate 1600x1200?
 

I'm not a programmer, but shouldnt there be a software app that can simulate 1600x1200 on 1280x1024 resolution? Cant you just draw 4 out of 5 pixels to simulate this (for 1600x1280)?

I got my 2001fp, but my crappy 2nd monitor could go for 4 full tables, no overlap.

Is the 2nd monitor an LCD or CRT? If it's a CRT there's a really good chance you can bump up the resolution but the text will be much smaller. If it's an LCD you're out of luck.

just got rid of my crt's. How would that have helped? I own a bunch of cheap 17" 1280x1024 crt's and would consider going back if i could get 4 tables with no overlap.

I'm not a programmer, either, but I don't see why not. Multi-tabling online poker players are probably the only potential users of such software, though, so I suppose that's why nobody's bothered to write it.

I'm more or less in the same boat as you though my main monitor is a Dell 2005FPW (I usually only play 2 windows at a time so 4 tabling isn't a huge deal for me). My 2nd monitor is an LCD that has a max resolution of 1280x1024. You can go above that resolution if it's only a 17" LCD. Busting out the old CRT shoud let you go to at least 1600x1200 if you needed it to. Hope this helps.
