    If badly cramped for space perhaps. A stand to hold two normal screens vertically's just as expensive as the gimmic, but otherwise IMO a screen that small's only really useful for mobile/embeddedish applications. You can get a cheap 19" monitor for about the same price, much better if you have the space for it.

    Today's lesson is brought to you by the word "niggardly". Remember kids, don't attribute to racism what can be explained by Scandinavian language roots. -- Robert Royall

    I agree. I use an otherwise 'retired' 17" job. Until you try two monitors, you can't appreciate how much of a difference it makes. Do you know that in an earlier post thread they were talking about nipples and boobies and stuff? Nobody told them off.

      I came across a review for this Samsung monitor[^] in a magazine. Any one think of a sensible use for the little satellite monitor, especially as it seems to add roughly £100 to the price of similar single monitors. The only thing I can think of would be for my EMail client permanently on view.

            give me your email, and I'll forward it to some "friends" of mine; they will send you all the information you need to get up to 9 inch. ;P

              I'd want three on each side of the monitor (CP, email, calendar, calculator, chat, help...) I'll have to ask the wife if she'd want several 7 inchers or just the one.
