Re: 1280x1024 vs 1600x1200
I just went to 2048*1536 and I can't imagine going back to 16*12 even, it's really amazing. Suprised I don't hear about more people here using this.

[/ QUOTE ] True, but the overlap is pretty minimal, 3 fit perfectly vertically covering pretty much only the chat box (which I rarely use anyway), and 2 horizontally leaves room leftover for some smaller apps. 12 tables setup very nicely on my two monitors, now I just need to get a pc that doesn't slow to a crawl w/ over 5 tables going.

Re: 1280x1024 vs 1600x1200
That's cool...just a matter of preference (and maybe cost) I guess. I'm using the 1920x1200 on the Dell 6000 laptop, which I really like. I'd like to get a 2001FP to add on. Which make/model are these monitors that you just upgraded to?

[/ QUOTE ] I got a deal from a friend of a friend on some old-school Compaq P110's from some graphic design company that was upgrading or something like that, 2 for $200. I did a quick search or two and it seemed they were pretty serious when they came out ('98?), and from what I understand regular monitors haven't changed much (??) so I figured I couldn't go wrong. Turns out they are f'ng huge. I have plenty of room so it's no big deal, but obviously that would be a factor for some. But the I gotta say the picture is brilliant, and I just love having so much room. heh, I get claustrophobic on my 17" now.

I can't remember how much he charged me off-hand, but I think it was like $200. |
