Started with one 21" Hitachi that I have had for 5 years now. Great monitor, but weighs in at 60#. Added a new video card with dual outputs and got the first 17" LCD. After one week, retired my 21" Hitachi and got a second 17" LCD.
Only good monitors Are Nec,Samsung,Mitsubishi and sony! Word has it that Viewsonic pruchases CRT'S and LCD's that do not meet the specs of other companies.
I own a Philips 107-T flat screen monitor.
I use a 15 in. NEC accusync LCD and a 15 in. Sony Trinitron in a dual monitor configuration.
Samsung SyncMaster 915n
19" Flatscreen LCD
Excellent performance.
I use a ViewSonic 19 inch CRT monitor on my main computer. I also have a KDS 17 inch CRT for my inoperable Linux machine, which I hope to have running as soon as I get the motherboard replaced.
More important than anything is brand/ IMHO ViewSonic is the only way to fly.
I have seen plenty of out-of-focus, irregular colors on friends monitors.......but my little baby delivers perfectly in every concept.
Very satisfied, particulary with the ability to physically turn the screen from landscape to portrait which is in use most of the time.
Maybe you should also ask how many have dual monitors...I have dual 19" screen instead of a larger single screen.
I use 2 screens, a Benq 791 LCD and a Samsung Syncmaster 753DFX both in 1280x1024 and it is great to have 2 windows side by side, it makes things really easy when doing work/assignments. Sometimes it is difficult to go back to 1 screen ![]()
I've had dual monitors (both 19" at 1280x1024) set up for about a year now, and I couldn't go back to a single. In fact, I'm now wishing I had the triple monitor video card installed.
Paid way too much when I bought it. Prices dropped around $800.00 within a few months of purchase. It works great when working on two projects at a time.
Excellent for games....sometimes too big. Makes you dizzy during very active games.
Wouldn't trade it for the world though !!
I'm using a Dell 1905FP LCD, a 19 inch unit. I usually run it at 1024 X 1280 (Portrait) for Internet and word processing,and 1280 X 1024 (Landscape) for other apps. At my age I have cranked up the DPI to 125%, which I also did on my old 17" CRT running 1024 X 768.
I have a 19" Viewsonic VX910 which I run at 1280 x 1024. The monitor has been totally trouble free and I am very happy with it.
. . . and very happy with it. I purchased through Newegg.com. Still waiting for the rebates, but monitor is great no bad pixels and Newegg was very easy to deal with.
