screen resolution & size

Hi everyone, With the recent events the last few days everyone is shocked. Therefore I'd like to start a little poll to distract you guys a bit. What is the size of your screen and in which resultion do you like to view your sourcecode? Do you love to have lots of sourcecode on the screen? Take care, Filip

1450x1050 on a 15inch TFT LCD (laptop, which is my sole and only workstation) I love it, I never want anything else unless it is more resolution and a bigger TFT LCD (on my laptop, the bigger screen is probably unlikely). bye for now, Filip. PS: Yes, bigger or better fools being invented is a problem for software developers but the fact that there seem to be ever increasing numbers of them and the fact that the more you tell them the worse it gets does not help much either.

Same here... 32bit colour resolution (though when things go slow I drop to 16bit) regards, Paul Watson Cape Town, South Africa e: paulmwatson@email.com w: vergen.org

I'm a resolution addict, I have to admit: 1600x1024 on a SGI 1600SW (roughly 17.3" 16:9 Wide-Format) at work 1600x1200 on my Dell I8K (15") - and I love it. I started developing software using a bloody old terminal, which was capable of displaying 80x24 characters. The printer in my then company was a rather fast line printer, which continuously churned out listings of sourcecode ... about two feet per year. And this was just to get an overview, because with 80x24 it was close to impossible. Since then, I gradually increased the screen real estate; my SGI gives me about 226x76 characters, when using Visual Studio. Of course I work with several window panes, but being abled to read larger portions of code really improves productivity, at least mine. Regarding UXGA on a 15" display - this is a notebook, where the distance between eyes and screen is much smaller than in a desktop environment - and I'm not visually impaired. I don't use a large font setting (why should I get an UXGA display for that in the first place?) and I'm using 8pt Andale Mono as my standard editing font. Lucky me, I'm abled to avoid CRTs.

1600 x 1200 on my desktop, and now thanks to the Dell Inspiron 8100, the same res on my laptop! My video cards are pretty vanilla since I don't have a need for hardware 3D or dithering effects in the products I build. I use a circa 1998 Gateway 20" tube (made by Sony) that's still razor sharp and appears to have great color. Probably the best investment I made, although my 3+ yr old Pentium-II 300MHz still continues to chug along! /ravi "There is always one more bug..." http://www.ravib.com ravib@ravib.com

At home I have a Matrox Dual Head G450 with 2 21' Viewsonic P815 monitiors both configured in 1280x1024. At Work I again have a dualhead with 2 19' Hitachi 751s both configured at 1152 X 864.

Hey brother, can you spare a monitor? :) Regards, Alvaro

You should talk to my coworker. We just hired a guy who brung in 2 SPARCs with three 15' monitors each and he also has a PC with a 19' monitor. His cubical shaped in a U is almost entirely full of monitors. I also do medical imaging as one other poster mentioned. And I have a 3 monitor High Resolution workstation with 3 2K X 2.5K 21' portrait monitors and also a 2 monitor 2K * 2.5K system that I develop code on. I don't use them very often for development because the monitors are grayscale. The nice thing about them is you can open a VS editor and see 115 lines of code (at a time) on a single monitor. I also don't use them very often because the refresh freq is only 71hz and I find the flicker a little annoying although its much better than the days when we < 50Hz monitors! They also make good heaters, when I had problems with the AC freezing me in my office (problems with the thermostat) turn on the monitors and the temp became tolerable.

None of my lousy 17" monitors go beyond 1200x1024. I like 1600x1200 when I can get it. Plus I have a 15" at 1024x768 (also maxed out), which I use mainly for Winamp and MSDN unless I am doing something in DX, then it is invaluable for debugging.

17" @ 1152x768 but ideally... 3 x 19" @ 1280x1024 ;) Multiple monitors are the way to go. I have 2 on my Win2k system at home, plus a spare VGA port for a third. Pity the desk isn't big enough though.... :-D Andy Metcalfe - Sonardyne International Ltd
