Anyone playing 10 tables with the beta software?

I'm always thinking of what a good viewing display setup would be, and now it looks like we have more options. The Computer forum has suggested that the best huge LCD is the Apple Cinema 30"er. It looks like you can only fit 6 full sized tables on this though. Maybe there is a good CRT resolution to fit 5 tables / screen? I still want to wait for the new exciting features for 2006 before I buy too much.

ive been 10 tabling with 9 on one of my 20.1"s and then on the other i have the lobby, a full sized table, and my spreadsheet i use, as well as winamp and trillian of course.

I like 9-tabling on 1600x1200 with the tables scaled down all the way to eliminate overlap. I like it cos I can see many of these little tables at once, & that's good for getting reads in a hurry. so, i recommend this setup over some sort of humongous-monitor dealio.

Can you see all 9 easy? I played 3 sets with 9 on my 19 inch CRT, and I could see it well enough to play, but I'm worried about my eyes going bad in the long run.

Ultimate setup?? 2 dell 2001s on dvi, with 2 party accounts for 18 tabling.

my problem so far is just getting a little better at grabbing the stupid bar now that its smaller, it hasnt been too big of a problem, but a little annoying sometimes

I've played about 20 hours like this by now & it doesn't seem to bother my eyes too much. I make sure to look at something far away every few minutes, and that seems to do the trick.

What I do want though is a macro that would let me go all-in at the press of a button. Anyone wanna teach me how to make one?

Yeah, I emailed mikeo@partygaming.com about the slider bar, and you should too. So you can see all 9 ok on the one 2001fp? 6 would probably fit good on a 2405fpw, so you could get 2 of those if you want the tables bigger.

Yeah, when do we get to 18 table? Even if you got 2 party accounts, you need 2 computers and 2 mice, right? Somebody else ask Mikeo to let us 18 table too!
