Ahoy, :)

So just how big ARE these CRT monitors that run at 1920x1440?

One is a 19" Samsung SyncMaster 957p, and the other is a 21" Compaq V1100. Yes, they're different sizes, and yes, I have them at the same resolution. Also, yes, they're beasts, but I have the desk depth. :)

By the way, the 21" one is the one I play on, but the 19" one is the one that's dying, and it's also the one I have all my auxiliary Visual Studio windows...

Cheers,
J.

How many people must I sleep with to get enough money for that card, 11 more monitors, and the computer that would be able to work with that? o.o

Hoy, :)

So my 19" finally died, and I had no choice but to order up a new monitor. Alas, I had to make do with some wide bollocks, cuz that's all that they sell, here, nowadays. Now, I wanted to get a 16:10, but they're about 50% more expensive than 16:9's here, and because I'm not the one footing the bill, I had to settle for a 1920x1080 monitor.

So, I did things with a twist. I ordered up a swivel one, for about 20€ more, and I have it on vertical.

Yes, that's right, my auxiliary monitor, the one I use for browsing wowhead and for holding my Visual Studio auxiliary windows is now a 1080x1920 monitor.

It... feels kind of weird, but at least, it's not retartedly wide. :D

Cheers,
J.
