Default Dell Laptop screen, 1440 x 900 vs. 1920 x 1200, which is better & why?

Dell laptops offer 2 different screen options, do both these allow 4 PP tables to fit without any overlap?

17 inch Ultra Sharp WXGA+, 1440 x 900 pixels
17 inch Ultra Sharp WUXGA with TrueLife, 1920 x 1200 pixels

Thanks!

to run 4 PP tables i run at 1600x1200.

First monitor doesn't let you, The second does.
Go for the second if you want to do 4xtabling.

youre going to have overlap in the 1440x900 resolution. ancientpc did a thread in internet about screen resolutions for poker and with 1600x1050 resolution your tables will be overlapped by the size of the party chatbox on both tables. with 900 instead of 1050 it will be twice as bad.

my old computer was 1440x900 (or whatever it is).

The overlap was tolerable...but it was still a factor.

In the center of the screen I had corner of all 4 screens touching and overlapping. Kind of a pain.



1900x1200 is my current laptop screen-res.
Obviously this is good for 4 tabling WITH a little bit left-over.
And I freaking love it.

It's WELL worth it to spend the extra bucks to get AT LEAST 1600x1200. And, imo it's worth it to spend more on top of that to get 1900x1200.

I got the other and I am soooooooooo sad that I did. Damn you frugality!

Seriously. I kick myself nearly every time I launch up the 3rd+ table.
