Default What size monitor do you have?

Are you lucky enough to have a huge 19"+ monitor, or do you prefer something a bit more manageable?

What! no multi-choice?

I have a 15" CRT I use for 'fixing' PCs as it can manage 1024 very nicely, my Iiyama 19" CRT (as we know you only really get an 18") that I thought was failing but is perfect ... and my new Video7 19" TFT

It's not how big it is, it's how you use it that counts.

I voted 19"



19" Iiyama for sale, Bex cheap, buyer collects.

17" LCD on the main rig at home, 15" LCD at the Office but it is used with the Laptop through the docking station. I aminly work on my Laptop and seldom use the main rig at home. Have voted for 17" for the record.

21" & 19" both CRT, both Iiyama. Both at 1280 x 1024 85Hz

The biggest is good for gaming
