Re: Best laptop for 4-tabling?
[ QUOTE ]
Hey Tenth, how is the size of the tables on your screen? Is it okay? Because I'm looking at getting a 15.4'' monitor with 1900 x 1200 resolution and I'm wondering if the tables will be so small that it strains my eyes. [/ QUOTE ] I'm extremely happy with the 1680x1050 screen. I have no problems with seeing the screen, and I can still 4-table with very minimal overlap. I don't think I'd have a problem with the 1900x1200 screen either, but I think I'd have to wear glasses to do it (rarely need them). |

Here's the Dell comparison.
Dell Notebook Comparison Page I've got a 600m (1400x1050), which still has overlap, though not as much as my old 1280x1024 desktop lcd. Very portable, might want to consider size if you'll be toting it around. I would personally stick with Dell over a no-name brand. |

Re: Best laptop for 4-tabling?
How much overlap does your 600m have? Can you still see all four tables and players cards with it? Ant info would help. Thanks

Re: Best laptop for 4-tabling?
Whether you have a 15,17",19" or 21" monitor (laptop or desktop) what matters in the max resolution.
You buy any 19" desktop monitor, the max res. is still less than the 1600x1200 needed to 4 table without overlap. To get to the 1600x1200 you need to move up to 20"+ desktop monitors. Buying the DEll 15.4" WUXGA laptop you will have up to 1900x1200 which means you can 4 table and have a little screen space free (the 1600x1200 screen is a little cheaper and will also let you 4 table). The 9300 and 6000 (with the same max resn screens) will therefore give you the same results. The tables will be physically a bit smaller on the 6000 but the amount of stuff you can fit onto the screen will be the same.. |

Re: Best laptop for 4-tabling?
the XPS is the 9300 with some extra gaming stuff added (my 9300 was actually specced out more or less the same as the XPS - it was cheaper to go the 9300 route as they had special deals on it)

Re: Best laptop for 4-tabling?
sorry I assumed everyone is using LCD monitors - sure you can go CRT if you don't mind not having any real desktop left
here is a link to a well known UK site selling LCD monitors - search with keyword 19" not one of the 20+ shown is more than 1280x1024 http://www.microdirect.co.uk/product...px?GroupID=420 |
