    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

        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. Christian As I learn the innermost secrets of the around me, they reward me in many ways to keep quiet. Men with pierced ears are better prepared for marriage.

            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
