    It must take at least 5 minutes just to move the mouse cursor from the left edge to the right edge. :~ /Magnus

      Out of curiousity, what screen resolution do you guys use? Myself, I use 1152×864, but that is partly because I code in LabVIEW with a limitedly large screen.

      My primary monitor (Dell Inspiron 8600 laptop screen) is 1920 x 1200. When I'm in the office I hook up an old 1024 x 768 LCD monitor as a secondary screen - very useful for emails, web pages, and for User Interface design when smaller screen resolutions have to be considered.

                IIRC 734 is the height of the desktop when the monitor is set to 768 high but there is a start bar at the bottom of the screen.

                  Interesting, never heard anyone take that into consideration. The problem is that while a majority of task-bars are on the bottom some are on the side and mine is twice the height of a normal one. regards, Paul Watson Ireland FeedHenry needs you

                    1024x768 on 12in screen (it's a laptop). At work I have 2 21in flat panels, don't recall the screen resolution. It as high as I could go and still read 10pt text. Tanks for your Support Pat O'Hara

                          Always on a laptop :-> If out and about, I use the max res of 1024x768 :( (that's not much, especially for a developer like me :sigh: wish I had more) When at home/office, I use 2 screens, extended desktop. Monitor at 1280x1024 as main desktop and laptop LCD as extended. Love working with 2 screens. And would like it even more if my laptop had better res, heh, but it's fine, I'm used to it now. :)

                              Most of the time I use 1024×768 on my 15" monitor, at 72Ghz refresh, but I switch to 800 X 600 when I am testing the layout of a website during the development phase. The reason I stick to these two options is because of a demographic study I conducted to find out what screen resolution the majority of website viewers reported that they like to use. Found out it's about 60% 1024×768 and 40% 800 X 600... ~ Dorky and Proud of It

                                      Left & right screens (17" CRTs): 1024 x 768 @ 75 and 85 Hertz respectively Middle screen (17" TFT): 1280 x 1024 @ 75 Hertz When I get another two TFTs to replace the CRTs then I'll run those at 1280 x 1024 as well. (Home PC is 1024 x 768 on a single 17" CRT)

                                        This allows only 24-bit color, it is maxing out the ancient Matrox Millenium G550, however both displays are excellently crisp. The big one is a Sony E540, nice and crisp still although the contrast is perhaps half of what it was new - after it powers up the contrast is very faint and it takes maybe 10 minutes to be usable. Still I was pleased with the results of my research - Matrox DOES have the super-fast RAMDAC's which it takes to crisply generate such a large number of pixels - they pride themselves on 2D resolution, what a coder needs ! pg--az
