Eldmannen Posted February 22, 2007 Author Share Posted February 22, 2007 I am not sure that "the bigger the better". Computing on a 42" ? I don't know... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

greenknight Posted February 22, 2007 Share Posted February 22, 2007 Don't know, never used a widescreen monitor. Got a 17" normal one, a little bigger would be nice. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Eldmannen Posted February 22, 2007 Author Share Posted February 22, 2007 I got a 19" CRT, but I want a 19" LCD. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SenutyEnool Posted February 22, 2007 Share Posted February 22, 2007 I'm so finicky I can't make a decision, I have a 17" + 19" (both normal LCD) and a 24" widescreen monitor at home.... Currently have the 24" hooked up to play WoW and if I had to make a decision which is best, I'd go for the 24". Once you have started using a widescreen monitor you'll find you don't want to go back to the normal screen. But I'll have to deal with that fairly soon as the 24" is from work and I'll have to remember to return it one of these days Cheers :happybday: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Capman Posted February 23, 2007 Share Posted February 23, 2007 32" flat screen Currently have the 24" hooked up........... How far away do you guy's have to sit with monitors that big? I could stop wearing glasses on my computer with something that big. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

krit86lr Posted February 23, 2007 Share Posted February 23, 2007 32" flat screen Currently have the 24" hooked up........... How far away do you guy's have to sit with monitors that big? I could stop wearing glasses on my computer with something that big. I don't know. I sit on the couch when using that monitor. The flat screen is set up as the TV, computer, wii, DVD. So when I want to be comfy on the couch and flip between the internet and TV I am using that monitor which is maybe 8 feet away. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SenutyEnool Posted February 25, 2007 Share Posted February 25, 2007 32" flat screen Currently have the 24" hooked up........... How far away do you guy's have to sit with monitors that big? I could stop wearing glasses on my computer with something that big. Normal distance, but then again my resolution is set down, it's set at 1152x864. And 'Yes' I can read at that level, everytime I show something on my PC to people at work I get asked the question "How can you read that?". I've started changing my answer to "Simple, I open my eyes and look, it's not braille you know......" Cheers :cake: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

awergh Posted July 24, 2008 Share Posted July 24, 2008 i think i have a 17" CRT, though im still convinced it is a 19" probably something to do with going from 17" to 15" and then to this monitor which makes it so much bigger. id probably want a 19" LCD, but im in no hurry and i dont want wide screen cause i play too many old games and im not sure how that would display in widescreen Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eldmannen Posted July 24, 2008 Author Share Posted July 24, 2008 Poll is a bit outdated. Now it is common with 22" and 24" screens. :yay: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SenutyEnool Posted July 30, 2008 Share Posted July 30, 2008 ( ::applies the RezzoRectoOldTopic spell:: ) Just to throw further confusion into the mix, have finally got my monitors set up, am now running dual 24" widescreen monitors and looking at getting another graphics card to hook up the 19" monitor (all flat screens) as well...... Yeah, yeah, I LOVE my screen real estate. Haven't looked back since hooking up the duals, great for playing games and still being able to surf/email/Vent/AIM/etc in the other 'window' without having to either minise or 'Alt-Tab' continuously.
